God of creation,
giver of life,
be the light in our darkness,
grant us peace in our strife.
Show us your mercy;
give us new birth.
You have made us your children
to bear fruit on the earth.

Kyrie eleison,
Kyrie eleison,
Kyrie eleison,
Kyrie eleison.

Lord our redeemer,
healer of souls,
be the hope that restores us;
with your touch make us whole.
Here we partake in
your feast of love;
give us strength on our journey
with your body and blood.

Christe eleison,
Christe eleison.
Christe eleison
Christe eleison. 

Spirit most holy,
Comforter blest,
be the fire that consumes us
and our hearts’ welcome guest.
Form us, renew us;
call us by name;
raise us up from the ashes
and create us again.

Kyrie eleison,
Kyrie eleison,
Kyrie eleison,
Kyrie eleison.

Lord Jesus Christ,
pour put your compassion
grant your people pardon
Kyrie eleison,
Kyrie eleison.

Lord Jesus Christ,
bring healing and wholeness;
give your people comfort:
Christe eleison
Christe eleison. 

Lord Jesus Christ,
the source of forgiveness
show your people mercy
Kyrie eleison,
Kyrie eleison.

Up from the ashes
we now arise
and return to our Maker
who has answered our cries.
Knowing God’s mercy,
we share this meal;
through the Word and the Table
boundless love is revealed.

Kyrie eleison,
Kyrie eleison,
Kyrie eleison,
Kyrie eleison.
