Prayer of Unity

Oh Lord of light,

Who builds His kingdom in the darkness,

Spreading goodness through Abraham's bloodline.

Move the mountains, Mighty God,

That they will not cause stumbling,

But instead be like a city on a hill for all to see.

We praise You for the footsteps left by Your son, Jesus Christ,

Guiding us to a resurrection day,

Teaching us how to truly forgive, even those who are against us.

Let us take rest at Your feet, God,

Filling our cups to overflow with the life-giving waters at the well of Sychar (si-car,)

Where outcasts can join together in unity.

May our roots spring forth,

Let Your will be done, across all continents,

Without barriers to hold it back.

Soar through the skies like an Eagle,

Swooping down, grasping the weak,

That they will gain safety under the shadow of Your fleeting wings.

Let Your Spirit come upon all of Your servants,

To give us the courage of a lion,

That we can stand firm when facing adversity.

Let us unite under Your banner, Lord,

That one day we can all sing Your praises,

Because we belong to You and lack no good thing.

We wait for the time when we can sit as a family,

When we can feast on the glory set out by our Father,

At the table that has been prepared.

I say Hallelujah, Hallelujah for all eternity.

Amen.
