In order to help get a better experience out of my Sunday worship, I think it might be helpful to wake up at sunrise on Sunday mornings and pray as the sun comes up in honour of the Resurrection.

Does anyone know any good, particularly traditional, prayers that focus on the Resurrection of Christ and are perhaps even intended for the above purpose?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks.
 
Um, Divine Office?

Oh, I found this psalm:

Psalm 92
It is good to give thanks to you, O God,
to make music to your holy name,
to proclaim your love at daybreak
and your faithfulness through the night.

With the melody of lyre and harp
I sing of your glory.
I delight in your many wonders.

How glorious are your works,
how varied your designs!

The foolish cannot know this,
and the fool cannot understand.
The wicked spring up like grass;
all who do evil thrive,
only to wither forever.

But you, O God, are eternal.
Your enemies perish;
all doers of evil are scattered.

To me you give your strength;
you anoint me with rich oil.
You reveal the treachery of my enemies
so I may avoid their cunning.

The just will flourish like the palm tree
and grow tall as Lebanon cedars.
Planted in your garden,
they will flourish in your presence.

Still bearing fruit in old age,
still full of life, still green,
your constancy they proclaim.

You, O God, are my rock;
you renew my life.
 
Thank you.

I am new in reclaiming my Catholic heritage, so I do not know what the Divine Office is. I will look it up.
 
The Office of Lauds (one of the parts of the Divine Office) got its name from the three Laudate Psalms–Pss 148, 149, and 150–recited at the end.
