PRAYERS
The abundance of every new day
Lies waiting
As fields ripe for harvest
Or fruit heavy on the branches,
Goodness in the eyes of the Lord of Heaven and Earth
Looks down from Heaven’s Throne
Pierces the heart and soul of every splendid human
Loved by the King of Love
Delight of the Lord
As His hands reach out
Seek to touch with favor
Seek to establish footsteps
With infinite care and purpose,
Our paths daily kept safe
Our futures held securely
Hope that deepens
Hope that becomes richer, fuller
When we prayerfully draw near
With each thought, each word spoken
Each act in faith
Everything as a living prayer of intimacy
Offered to the only One who truly cares,
A mutual celebration of life in eternal embrace
Friendship and fellowship joined
As our lips and hearts cry out to Him
In praise, in worship, in thanksgiving
For the wealth of His life poured out
Every day, for us
Our prayers mixed with Heaven’s divine incense
Rise before the Majestic Throne of our God.
