Church of England publishes prayer

The Church of England has published a prayer for the upcoming royal child. The Church is encouraging people to say the prayer at home and it is also likely to be used in some churches.

God our creator, we thank you for the wonder of new life and for the mystery of human love. We pray for William, Duke of Cambridge and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge as they prepare to receive the gift of their child. We thank you that we are known to you by name and loved by you from all eternity, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
