A Prayer

[lady_lirenel]

I thought this prayer would be fitting for today. It's taken from elecktrum's fic "Passing Down the Crown", and altered only slightly for relevance:

For this our land
We exalt thee
For its bounty
We thank thee
For its safety
We follow they banner
For peace
We pray to thee
Thy faith
We return it to thee

Thy name
We glorify
Thy might
We extol
For thy blessing
We humbly kneel to thee
For thy love
We proclaim your glory, oh Lord

And so, we offer our prayer to give thanks and love to thee, Father. Guide us, guard us, grant us thy blessing. Keep us in thy hands, that we may keep thee in our hearts.

Help us serve others, as we ourselves are served.
Amen.
