Prayer 677


My heart is firmly fixed, O God, for You have lifted me and restored me, and I will sing your praise forever! 

You have placed me in the cleft of the rock as the tumult tore against me. You have gathered me under your wing; You are my shelter against the heat of midday and the chill of the night watches. When I stumble in weariness or blindness, your hand is upon my shoulder to steady me. 

May my feet commit themselves to following your way, that I may stand upon the foundation of your mercy and love. May I reach out my hand to my brothers and sisters, remembering that in your grace, You tend me in my hour of need. May the cares and concerns of those who call upon You ascend to You like soaring birds.

Amen.
