Diocesan Prayer Diary: for the parishes of (King’s) Lynn Deanery. The Sunday prayer:-

God of unchangeable power,
when you fashioned the world the morning stars sang together
and the host of heaven shouted for joy:
open our eyes to the wonders of creation
and teach us to see all things for good,
to the honour of your glorious name;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
