Jesus Is Risen – A Prayer for Easter Sunday.

I wrote this a few years ago but thought I would share it again for your enjoyment.

Jesus Christ you have risen and we see you,

In the faces of the poor, 

In the hurting of the sick, 

In the anguish of the oppressed

Jesus Christ you are risen and we see you,

In the weakness of the vulnerable, 

In the questions of the doubting, 

In the fears of the dying.

Jesus Christ you are risen and we see you,

In the celebration of the saints,

In the generosity of the faithful,

In the compassion of the caring.

Jesus Christ you are risen and we see you,

You transform our world with love and hope,

You ignite our hearts of stone with compassion and care,

You transfigure our world with the spirit of life.

Hallelujah, Jesus Christ you are risen and we see you.
