Easter Even
Collects
Grant, O Lord, that as we are baptized into the death of thy blessed Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ, so by continually mortifying our corrupt affections we may be buried with him, and that through the grave, and gate of death, we may pass to our joyful resurrection, for his merits, who died and was buried and rose again for us, thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

We beseech thee, O Lord, pour thy grace into our hearts, that, as we have known the incarnation of thy Son Jesus Christ by the message of an angel, so by his cross and passion, we may be brought unto the glory of his resurrection, through the same Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
