ANZAC DAY PRAYER

"They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; 
age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. 
At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them.

We will remember them. 

God of love and liberty,

we bring our thanks for the peace

and security we enjoy,

which was won for us

through the courage and devotion

of those who gave their lives in time of war.

We pray that their labour and sacrifice

may not be in vain,

but that their spirit may live on in us

and in generations to come.

That the liberty, truth and justice

which they sought to preserve

may be seen and known

in all the nations upon earth.

This we pray in the name of the one who gave his life for the sake of the world, 

Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
