O Lord Our Helper,
we lift our eyes to You,
that You may guide and direct us this day.
Grant us a thirst for wisdom, O Great Counselor,
that we may walk in your paths with integrity
and demonstrate your truth without fail.
May we pull down the corruption within our hearts, O God,
and turn to follow your ethic of loving one another
and seeking healing and abundance for all.
Turn us, O Shepherd, from pursuing our selfish desires;
let us love You and your law with undivided hearts.
Teach us how to live together
in pursuit of the common good, Lord Jesus,
bearing with each other in lovingkindness,
caring for the stranger, the lost, and the oppressed
as You taught us.
Anoint us by your Spirit
to be renewed by your right hand
that we may walk in holiness and purity of heart,
O Most High;
and look with favor upon those for whom we pray.
Amen.
