Prayer 2713: to be led by God's mercy


Most Merciful God, 
we worship You and praise your Name, 
setting our wills before You 
and seeking your guidance. 

 On the wings of morning
we lift our hearts to You,
and at day's end we rest in your mercy,
O Ground of Our Being, 
grateful for your sustenance and truth. 

Pierce our hearts, Lord Christ, 
with the knowledge of our responsibility to one another
to carry your light into the world
by all that we say and do.

May we make you our model,
showing us how to live as children of God, 
unified by love and justice. 

Spirit of the Living God, 
help us to approach day's end rejoicing, 
glad for our labors in your Name, 
and grateful for your abundant blessings.
Extend the awning of your mercy, O Holy One,
over all for whom we pray.

Amen.
