We stand
Against injustice
And hope for a better world
Where everyone is housed
And fed
A world of abundance
Bless us on that journey
Song “In the House”
You entrusted the earth to us
And we have destroyed it
The forests are burning
Animals are dying
Our world is sick
Forgive us
Restore our vision and help us to act bravely to save your precious world
We say the Lords Prayer in our own language
Psalm 57
I’m thanking you, God, out loud in the streets,
singing your praises in town and country.
The deeper your love, the higher it goes;
every cloud is a flag to your faithfulness.
11 Soar high in the skies, O God!
Cover the whole earth with your glory!
We pray for all those we know who need our help and prayers who we carry in our hearts today. For Ukraine, Russia, Iran, Yemen, Afghanistan, for Syria, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Belarus, Ethiopia, Yemen, Gaza, our burning world and those dealing with the fires, for politicians to act on climate change, for all with Covid today and their families, doctors and nurses, carers, teachers, those confronting injustice, for the many refugees, our own country, our families and friends and ourselves. Spirit of the Living God be present with us. Let your angels be beside us at this time. In Jesus Name we pray.
Song “Is he worthy”
Bless to us
The sun and moon that are above us
The earth that is beneath us
Friends and family around us
Your image within us
And the day/night that is before us. Amen.
