3rd Sunday of Epiphany, Post Communion (Redub)

God of light,

we thank you that your light

shines with a strength we cannot measure.

We rejoice that your Spirit fills

our lives and our world with love.

We are glad Jesus, our friend and brother,

has shown what it is to be truly happy.

May we follow your rule of peace

and tread gently upon the earth.

Amen.
