Prayer of Thanksgiving: 1 Peter 1

Here’s a prayer of thanksgiving from The Jubilate Group.  It was written by Michael Perry, based on 1 Peter 1.

Giving Thanks to God
(based on 1 Peter 1)

Praise be to you, God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ!

For your great mercy in giving us birth into a new life and a new hope
by raising Jesus Christ from death:
praise be to you, our God and Father!

For an inheritance that can never spoil or fade, kept for us in heaven:
praise be to you, our God and Father!

For the protection of your power, ours through faith,
until salvation comes at the end of time:
praise be to you, our God and Father!

Father, to you be all praise, glory and honour
through Jesus Christ, your Son, our Lord. Amen.
