And the peace of God
Which surpasses all understanding
Will keep Your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

(Phil. 4:6-7)

Father we have grown so anxious,
We have so many dreaded fears.
As we wonder what is happening,
What will be brought, in coming years?

Help us Father, rich in mercy,
To put all this angst aside.
May our fears transform to prayers.
May frantic fears subside.

Give us hearts of deep thanksgiving,
Make our hearts like unto Thine.
May Your peace pervade our living.
May hope today, in our hearts shine.

May we be bright lights for You,
With dispositions, kind and pleasant.
Stop us from thinking far ahead.
Help us just live this moment present.

Father hear our cries to heaven,
As to You we kneel in prayer.
Humbled by this cross we carry.
We offer You our every care.

Touch our loved ones with Your mercy.
May temptations at last cease.
Grant them wisdom to see clearly.
Bless all Father, with Your peace.
