Queen Elizabeth II (1926 - 2022)
Lord God of all consolation, as we give you thanks for the life of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, and bring to you our sadness and sorrow; so too we lift before you all the members of the Royal Family.
Be with them, O Lord, as they grieve not only for their Queen, but for their beloved mother, grandmother, and great–grandmother.
May they find great comfort in the promise of the new heaven and the new earth, wherein pain and suffering, grieving and sorrow will be no more and you will wipe away every tear.
Surround them with your love, remind them of your presence and encourage them in the sure and certain hope that belongs to all who trust in your Son, our Saviour, Jesus Christ.
Almighty God, the fountain of all goodness, we humbly pray that you would look upon your servant, King Charles.
Give to his Majesty, enduring wisdom and faith in the service of the people of this land and of you, his Lord and master.
Grant that his reign may be one of faithful witness and prove to others a source of hope,
that they may come to know more fully your Son Jesus Christ, who is alive and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit.
Enrich him with your heavenly grace; prosper him with all happiness; and bring him to your everlasting kingdom; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
AMEN
