Prayers: The Sixth Sunday of Lent ~ Palm Sunday
Jesus, King of the Universe,
You allowed yourself to be mocked and crowned with thorns.
Come, and reveal through us the mystery of your new kingship of humility.
May your name be upon us for ever and ever. Amen.
God of love,
as we travel to to the Cross,
keep our eyes fixed on Jesus.
Help us to welcome Jesus into our lives each day,
and to shout hosanna with joy
as we realise what Jesus means to us.
This we ask in the power of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Collect 53
Almighty and everlasting God,
who in your tender love towards the human race
sent your Son our Saviour Jesus Christ
to take upon him our flesh
and to suffer death upon the cross:
grant that we may follow the example of his patience and humility,
and also be made partakers of his resurrection;
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
