Father Lazarus

in bread and wine in words that that fall short lord but we know lord and we recognize you are with us and you have never left us and this is not just a memorial because you're gone but you are truly present with us let us devote our hearts to you lord and change this world we see lord so much destruction so much division so much hatred lord

Reveal, Lord, your beauty, your light to the world.

Use us, Lord, as tools to be a little piece of heaven, walking and showing others, Lord, what heaven is as you are living in us, and that your name is glorified and that you increase and we decrease.

We pray this through your holy and precious name, and as all the angels and the saints are praying with us,

Hear us, O Lord, as we pray in the way that you taught us, saying, Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come.

Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us.

Lead us not into temptation.

Deliver us from the evil one.

Christ Jesus, our Lord, for thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory forever and ever.

Amen.
