Eternal God of hope and light to every age and land, we ask your guidance and your grace to help us firmly stand for equal justice, peace and right wherever we may be to give to all a better life and days of liberty. Immortal God enlarge our sight that we may always see the needs of those who share our lives and help us each to be disciples of your word and way who seek to do your will, that in our days of earthly life we shall your purpose fill. Invisible though you may be we know that you are near. Increase our faith, O God of power, to see your vision clear. In days of darkness give us faith and confidence in you so we may walk with trust and hope to serve no one but you. All-Knowing God help us to live with confidence assured. Though you are hidden from our sight when answers are obscured. Help us hold fast to your commands, obedient to your way. That we may ever do the right to serve you every day.
