God of life; through your only Son you overcame
death and opened to us the gate of everlasting life.
Grant that we who celebrate our Lord’s
resurrection, may through the renewing power of
your spirit, arise from the death of sin to the life of
righteousness; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who
lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one
God, now and ever. Amen.
