that violence may give way to gentleness.

Come to us, God of peace.

 

Come to us, God of justice.

Come with your righteous judgments and your mercy.

that we may see the suffering of the poor in our own land;

that we may return to the way of righteousness and compassion.

Come to us, God of justice.

 

Come to us, God of love.

Come  with your extravagant kindness and your goodness.

Come to us, God of unity.

Come to us, God of hope.

Come to us with your promises; come in your mysterious presence.

Come to us, God of hope.

 

Come to us, O God, as we gather together and pray in the name of Jesus, who is

the head of the church and the lord of our lives.            Amen
