GOD I PRAY THAT YOU HEAR THE CRIES OF YOUR CHILD AND BLESS THEM AND GIVE THEM THEIR HEARTS DESIRE. AMEN

O Thou in whose great arms
All the children of earth are embraced,
Here in thy presence we remember
our kinship with all human kind.

We rejoice for those who are in
full health and strength,
Whose ways are ways of pleasantness
and peace.

Our hearts reach out toward those
whose ways are ways of suffering,
of body, mind, or soul.

May it be that thou shalt find us
reaching out to them
Not only with our hearts but with
our hands also,
To help them in the bearing of
their burdens,
To help in the lifting of their burdens.
(Robert French Leavens)
