we turn our eyes to the rising sun,
and our hearts to your commandments.
May we dedicate ourselves to your instruction
to love one another as You love us;
to turn aside from war to be makers of peace;
to seek reconciliation and healing
in our relationships with God and each other.
Strengthen us in compassion and mercy;
give us a delight and awe at your handiwork all around us;
help us to tread gently upon this earth
and as companions in your Way of Love and Justice.
Spread the canopy of your protection, we pray,
over all who turn to you for help, O Most Holy,
especially for those we now name.
Amen.
