O heavenly Father you have again let this day dawn. Help us to remember that its your gracious gift... give us today a heart that is pure in your sight, O God that we may see you. God of love and peace grant us your eternal peace and grace that we may at all times show ourselves to be peace-loving in our relations with one another... O Lord since you are our God and Creator, direct our life and walk according to your holy and divine will. All our works and deeds are in your hands...
We also pray for all people, everywhere. We pray for all troubled and desperate hearts, suffering and in need... O Lord let all of them together enjoy and partake of your mercy and your comfort.
Amen
From a Prayer Book for Earnest Christians: A Spiritually Rich Anabaptist Resource (edited)
As we pray this prayer, may our hearts become more open so that we may see what God is doing in the world, and how we have been specially equipped to participate with Jesus in bringing hope and healing to our community and to the world.
