Prayer 878: For God's Mercy
Show us your mercy, O Lord, for we have wandered far from your way. Give us the strength to rise up against oppression and hatred: let us root out injustice and fear within our hearts.
Bind up the wounds of the broken-hearted, O Savior and Redeemer: let us mourn together with You, and with each other. Let us turn into your healing embrace as a child whose fever has broken in the night: may we awaken to new light and hope in You.
Let our steps not falter on the paths of peace and justice: our hope is in the Lord, who makes all things new. Let us clasp each other, heart to heart, and stand fast in faith: make us one family united in love.
We offer our hearts to You on outstretched, trembling arms, O Sacred Heart; receive us, and ur prayers.
Amen.
