Gracious God,

we give thanks for the life of your servant

Queen Elizabeth

Bless our nation as we mourn her death

Amen

If you wish to light the paschal candle that is fine but please extinguish before you leave. Likewise there are a number of battery operated candles on the table for you to light whilst you pray, but could you turn them off after you have prayed.
