Fill uswithpeace, thatwemay live
as brothers and sisters, harmingno one.
OGodof the poor,
help us to rescue the abandoned and forgottenof this earth,
so precious in your eyes.
Bringhealing toour lives,
thatwemayprotect theworld andnot preyon it,
thatwemay sowbeauty, not pollution anddestruction.
Touch the hearts
of thosewho lookonly for gain
at the expense of thepoor and the earth.
Teach us to discover theworthof each thing,
tobe filledwith awe and contemplation,
to recognize that we are profoundlyunited
with everycreature
aswe journey towards your infinite light.
We thankyou for beingwith us each day.
Encourageus, wepray, in our struggle
for justice, love and peace.
