We praise You as the Son who taught us and died for us, living the life of man, showing us all the glories of how to live. We praise You as the Holy Spirit alive in our hearts, the constant presence of God with us, for You are the God of us personally, as well as the God in the glory of heaven.

We Pray For Our Nation and Royal Family, Lord, Guard and Guide All Who Dwell In These Lands. We Pray For Ourselves In Our Difficulties, May We Come To Know The Joys Of Our Lives.

Amen Prayer of Confession Gracious and forgiving God, we bring before You our burden of sins. We confess all our wrongdoing, all the times we have done what we ought not, and all the times we have left undone what we should have done. We confess that we have not always lived in Righteousness and truth. We confess all these things and lay down the burden of our sins.

We ask Lord God that You guide those in government and positions of authority to do that which is right, and we ask especially your blessing upon all those who stood this week, both those who must now take up a task, and those who shall not yet do so. We pray Your Blessings upon our Royal Family as they grieve the loss of Prince Philip and continue in their duties. We pray for the end of the pandemic, and help for all affected, especially remembering those places which suffer especially at the moment, Lord may their sufferings ease and may help and vaccines come unto all the world. We pray for all those who are hoping for good news, or improved prospects, may they receive comforts and joy. All these we ask trusting in Your promise of sustenance, now and forever. Thanks be to You Our Lord for all Your help. Amen The Grace May The Grace Of Our Lord Jesus Christ, And The Love Of God, And The Fellowship Of The Holy Spirit, Be With Us All, Ever More, Amen
