NIGHT PRAYER: Friday 9/16


In your arms, Lord, and in your peace,
        you hold our world and all creation…

In spite of this world’s troubles, Lord,
    you hold us in your arms,
        you hold us in your peace…
Through all our many fears and tears,
    you hold us in your peace…
Undeterred by war and conflict,
    you hold us in your peace…
Despite injustice and oppression,
    you hold us in your peace…
Whatever may befall us, Lord,
    you hold us in your peace…
When my heart’s engulfed with worry,
    and my soul is filled with grief,
when my problems are too many
    and my hope’s in short supply,
remind me then, especially then,
    and don’t let me forget,
you hold us in your arms, Lord,
    you hold us in your peace…
Protect us, Lord, while we’re awake,
keep vigil while we sleep
that awake, we keep the watch with you
and asleep, rest in your peace…
