Lord…
Whatever happens around us today,
whatever goes on inside us:
may your light dawn soft upon our hearts
and your Spirit calm our troubled souls.
Let a silence, a stillness within,
run deep and keep us strong
whatever our fears may be…
Let your light pierce
any clouds hovering
over the day and night ahead…
Let peace find its home in our hearts:
the peace, O Lord,
that is only yours to give.
Whatever may happen around us,
whatever the turmoil within us,
may your light dawn soft upon our hearts
and your Spirit calm our troubled souls…
Amen.
