Prayer 1490- With a song

A glorious sunset begins at the start of my first clergy retreat in the Diocese of Missouri.

With a song in my mouth
and a glad cry in my heart
I rise this morning
to breathe in your presence,
O Holy One.

God of mercy,
hear my prayer,
and let it rise
with those who seek you.

Grant me
an understanding and humble spirit,
that I may walk in the way of Christ
with love.

Settle your Holy Spirit
on those whose needs we lay before You, O God,
especially those we now name.

Amen.
