Pre-Communion
Almighty God,
give us grace to cast away the works of darkness
and to put on the armor of light,
which we so desperately need now, in our mortality,
in which your son, King Jesus, came to us in great humility;
that on the last day
when he is present in kingly splendor to judge the living and the dead,
we may be raised in new life with your gift of immortality;
through him who is alive and reigns over all with you,
in the unity of the holy Spirit,
one god, now and forever.
Communion
Post-Communion
O Lord, our god,
make us watchful and keep us faithful
as we await the presence of your son—our lord;
that, when he shall appear,
he may not find us sleeping in our brokeness/sin
but active in the good works you have prepared for us to do
and joyful in a right understanding of your greatness;
through King Jesus, our lord.
