O Merciful One,
we know that there is a time for everything,
for our times are in your hand.
Someone's hopeful, Lord--and You are with them:
May they know your presence.
Someone's laughing, Lord-- and You are with them:
May they know your presence.
Someone's crying, Lord-- and You are with them:
May they know your presence.
Someone's troubled, Lord-- and You are with them:
May they know your presence.
Someone's being born, Lord--and You are with them:
May they know your presence.
Someone's dying, Lord-- and You are with them:
May they know your presence.
With the hands you have given us to do your will,
we raise up these names today,
and ask your care to rest upon them.
Amen.
119, 1108
