Open a bible, light a candle, and place a spring flower beside it. Pray together:
LEADER: Dawn is your hour, risen Jesus, the moment when birds begin to sing and the night chill lifts.
ALL: Dawn is the hour of your new life and its promise to us.
LEADER: Your resurrection shows us the power of God’s love.
ALL: You are spring in our dormant world.
LEADER: You are new life stirring in our hearts.
ALL: We fix our eyes on your promise. Alleluia.
