Welcome to Wednesday Morning prayer based on the Anglican ‘A prayer book for Australia’.
We proclaim the Good News of our Lord Jesus Christ:
GOD in his infinite mercy, forgives all sins, and through our baptism in the name of our Saviour, Jesus Christ, we are given a rebirth into new life, free from the burden of all sin. ALLELUIA
With faithfulness we respond to the good news:
We acknowledge Christ as our saviour and accept with gratitude, that we are forgiven for all wrong doings, past and present. To honour the gift of forgiveness, we release our burden of guilt and rise up to live in the glory of God forever more.
Blessed be God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Blessed be God forever.
Let us Pray.
1
Rejoice always pray without ceasing; in everything give thanks;
For this is the will of God in Christ Jesus.
Glory to God; Father, Son and Holy Spirit:
as in the beginning, so now, and for ever. Amen.
2 The Opening Canticle, A Song of God’s Grace
Blessed are you,
the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ:
For you have blessed us in Christ Jesus
with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places,
You chose us to be yours in Christ,
before the foundation of the world:
That we should be holy and blameless before you.
In love you destined us to be your children,
through Jesus Christ:
according to the purpose of your will,
to the praise of your glorious grace:
which you freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.
Ephesians 1.3-6

The night has passed and the day lies open before us;

As we rejoice in the gift of this new day,
so may the light of your presence, O God,
set our hearts on fire with love for you;
now and for ever.
Amen.

7 The Canticle,
We praise you O God:
we claim you as Lord.
All creation thanks you:
The Father everlasting.
To you all angels, all the powers of heaven:
The cherubim and serafim sing in endless praise:
Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of power and might:
Heaven and earth are full of your glory.
Father of majesty unbounded:
Your true and only son, worthy of all praise,
the Holy Spirit, advocate and guide.
You, Christ, are the king of glory,
the eternal son of the father.
When you took our flesh to set us free:
You humbly chose the virgin's womb.
You overcame the sting of death:
And opened the kingdom of heaven to all believers.
You are seated at God's right hand in glory:
We believe that you will come to be our judge.
Come then, God, and help your people,
bought with the price of your own blood:
And bring us with your Saints to glory everlasting.
8 The belief and principle is said
I believe in God,
creator of heaven and earth,
whose love and merciful forgiveness
endures everlasting.
I believe in Christ the saviour,
whose example of love and compassion,
taught us a restored way to live, in collaborative unity with all people.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
whose divine guidance brings
us together to be one with the Holy Trinity.
Amen.

Save us from the time of trial

For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours
now and for ever. Amen.
