We pray Thee

We pray Thee,
O Christ,
to keep us under the spell of immortality.

May we never again think and act as if Thou were dead.

Let us more and more come to know Thee as a living Lord who hath promised to them that believe: “Because I live, ye shall live also.”

Help us to remember that we are praying to the

Conqueror of Death,

that we may no longer be afraid nor dismayed by the world’s problems and threats, since Thou hast overcome the world.

In Thy strong name, we ask for Thy living presence
and Thy victorious power.

Amen.

-Peter Marshall
