O Lord, the maze of earthly ways confused our intent; give us thy light to walk aright through our bewilderment. The burdened sigh and anguished cry that so disturb and taunt are sounds of fear through which we hear humanity in want. Give us the heart to do our part, to live the ancient creed, express our care, respond, and share, to meet another's need. By helping people live again most fully, we serve thee; again today we hear thee say, "You've done it unto me."
