Holy One, we praise You,
and give thanks for your multitudes of blessings;
may we welcome your Light into our midst.
Praised are You, our God,
ruler of the universe,
who made us holy through your commandments,
who performed wondrous deeds for our ancestors,
who has given us life and sustained us
and enabled us to reach this season.
May we remain ever steadfast in faithfulness,
remembering your goodness and mercy
that pursues us and seeks us out
all the days of our lives.
As one candle lights another,
both defying and defining the darkness,
may we too give support to each other,
for the repair of the world and our relationships.
May we sing out your faithful love,
remembering that You are ever with us
in our times of trial as well as joy,
and may we be your priestly people
clinging to You for ever.
Grant your blessing, we pray,
on all who seek You, O God of Peace,
and especially on those for whom we pray.
Amen.
