THE GOSPEL
John 20: 1-9
Then the other disciple also went in, the
one who had arrived at the tomb first, and
he saw and believed.
|
Alleluia!
The dark tomb lay bare.
He was not there.
John saw and
believed.
He
arose.
Alleluia!
Alive in hearts,
is here with us now.
Jesus,
You conquered your death
and ours.
Take us along with you to your Father
and ours.
Alleluia! Haleliwia! Aleluja! Alleluja! Aleluya
Aingeal ag glaoch!
Night surrendered to day, dark to light,
fear to courage, death
to resurrection.
Peter,
who was afraid to admit he knew the Lord,
now fearless, proclaims you boldly,
across the barren hills,
each place he goes
in every action
he takes.
Lord,
Give
us your
Spirit too,
give us your life
as you gave it to Peter.
Let us show your story with our lives.
Lord,
O help us
find what is above:
compassion, gentleness,
kindness, humility and patience.
Let us put on love:
forgive one another, bear with one another.
Let peace dwell in our
hearts.
