This is a beautiful prayer about the time we are living in with the Covid 19 pandemic. It is written by gifted author James O’Brien:
Days of Pandemic, Weeks of Renewal God of all days These days of pandemic are weeks of fear Tend our hopes with affection Walk with us in our darkness Speak words of comfort and peace.
God of all days These days of pandemic are weeks of waiting Draw us to your Word as consolation Give us ears to listen deeply Move songs of grief and love in our hearts.
God of all days
These days of pandemic are weeks of upheaval
Hear our deep desires
Listen to our cries from the pit of frustration
Resound new music on our lips.
God of all days
These days of pandemic are weeks of quiet
Give our streets a sense of calm
Help our health workers in their time of need
Guide our leaders to reflect on their experience.
