They do not Fade Away - We Will Remember Them Always
Collect
Lord God,
we pray simply for peace on earth.
If in war we brought peace closer,
strengthen our hope;
if we shared our bread with others,
keep us generous;
if we dream of a better world,
hear our prayer.
Amen.
Thanksgiving

Prayer
O God, our ruler and guide,
In whose hands are the destinies of this and every nation,
We give you thanks for the freedoms we enjoy in this land
And for those who laid down their lives to defend them:
We pray that we Kiwi and all the people of Australia
Gratefully remembering their courage and their sacrifice,
May have the grace to live in a spirit of justice,
of generosity, and of peace;
Through Jesus Christ our Lord,
Who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
One God, for ever and ever.
Amen
The Blessing
The LORD bless you and keep you:
The LORD make his face to shine upon you, and be gracious to you:
The LORD lift up his countenance upon you, and give you peace.
Amen.
