Schools Morning Prayers for Lent 1

((Sung:
Not by bread alone do we live,
but by every word from the mouth of God.
Not by bread alone, not by bread alone, not by bread alone.

Glory to the Father, glory to the Son, glory to the Holy Spirit now and for ever. Amen.

Not by bread alone do we live,
but by every word from the mouth of God.
Not by bread alone, not by bread alone, not by bread alone

Let us pray

Father of us all,
As we celebrate Lent
we thank you for all you give us
and we offer you this day with generous hearts
through Christ our Lord.    Amen.

In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.

Intercessions

We pray that we may so love our families and friends
that we pray for them each day of Lent.  Lord, hear us

We pray that during Lent
we may be able to do without something
and be able to offer it to God.
Lord, hear us

We pray that
being aware of the needs of others
we may be generous to them.
Lord, hear us

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come,  Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us,
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil.

Let us pray

Lord,
during Lent
Let us find the strength we need
to live up to the dignity you have given us as your children,
and to support others when they need our help.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.   Amen

Blessing:  May the Lord bless us, and keep us from all harm,
and may he lead us to eternal life.

Not by bread alone do we live,
but by every word from the mouth of God.
Not by bread alone, not by bread alone, not by bread alone.

Glory to the Father, glory to the Son, glory to the Holy Spirit now and for ever. Amen.

Not by bread alone do we live,
but by every word from the mouth of God.
Not by bread alone, not by bread alone, not by bread alone.
