God the Father,
your will for all

you came that we
might have life,
and have it more
abundantly.
We
praise and bless you, Lord.
God the Holy Spirit,
you make our bodies
the temple of your presence.
We
praise and bless you, Lord.
Holy Trinity, one
God,
in you we live and move
and have our being.
We
praise and bless you, Lord.
Grant to all who are
lonely, anxious or depressed
a knowledge of your will
and an awareness of your presence.
Hear
us, Lord of life.
Grant to all who
minister to those who are suffering
wisdom and skill,
sympathy and patience.
Hear
us, Lord of life.
Mend broken
relationships,
and restore to those
in distress soundness of mind and serenity of spirit.
Hear
us, Lord of life.
Sustain and support
those who seek your guidance
and lift up all who
are brought low by the trials of life.

Grant to the dying
peace and a holy death,

us, Lord of life.
Restore to wholeness
whatever is broken by human sin,
in our lives, in our
nation, and in the world.
Hear
us, Lord of life.
You are the Lord who
does mighty wonders.
You
have declared your power among the peoples.
With you, Lord, is
the well of life
and
in your light do we see light.
Hear us, Lord of
life:
heal
us, and make us whole.
Let us pray.
Silence
O Lord our God,
accept the fervent
prayers of your people;
in the multitude of
your mercies
look
with compassion upon us
and all who turn to
you for help;
for you are gracious,
O lover of souls,
and to you we give
glory,
Father, Son, and Holy
Spirit,
now and forever. Amen.
