And now we give you thanks because by his death he has destroyed death, and by his rising again he has restored to us eternal life.

The risen Christ is in our midst, so with Christ we pray….

Hymn                   
We're children of God; we're welcomed and claimed.
We're given new birth, renewed and renamed.
The world may not know yet to whom we belong,
But we are God's children and love is our song.

We're children of God who takes away sin.
In Christ we abide; our life is in him.
We offer forgiveness, seek justice and peace,
And reach out to others, that love may increase.

We're children of God and so our delight
Is living the life that's good in God's sight.
One day we'll be like him, transformed from above
To sing for eternity God's song of love.
