Redeeming God, you draw us all to you through love rather than law…

God of fire and water, your searing justice has set alight the earth…

God our treasure, the reign of your love and justice is your gift…

Generous God, you give us many gifts to lead us into the fullness of life…

…help us to respect our whakapapa and to learn from the wisdom of the old…

Help us not to be so worried and distracted by many things that we forget the one thing we need.

May we love you with all our heart, and soul, and strength, and mind, and love our neighbours as ourselves.

Though we cannot see Jesus, we may learn to put our whole trust in him

You flung the stars into space and your majesty is revealed in their beauty.

God of liberation, you free us from the chains that bind us…

God, glorious in Trinity, no dimensions can define you or thought contain you…

Holy Spirit of God, as of fire, forging, purging, all-consuming…

Eternal God, no sight or thought can follow Christ this day…

Alleluia, God Eternal; grace and wholeness show your glory…

God of every generation that has been and is yet to be…

Alleluia, God Eternal, our guide and our protector, in troubles and uncertainty, lead us…

Alleluia, God Eternal, Jesus restored disheartened friends at breakfast on the beach…

Almighty God, by your grace John Mark rose above failure, and proved useful in your service…

Alleluia, God Eternal; death cannot contain your glory, nor our mind confine this mystery…

God of saints and sinners, these palms will dry and fade…
