Good Friday Prayer - Lutheran Prayers

Lutheran Prayers

The Good Friday bidding prayer in the Evangelical Worship book used by the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America reads as follows:

Let us pray for the Jewish people, the first to hear the word of God.

Silent prayer.

Almighty and eternal God,

long ago you gave your promise to Abraham and your teaching to Moses.

Hear our prayers that the people you called and elected as your own

may receive the fulfillment of the covenant's promises.

We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Amen.
