Friday Prayer
When the week is almost done,
And our souls feel they've been spun,
In a thousand directions we've run,
We long for God's love to make us one.
We enter into this time of prayer
When the good, bad, ugly we share
We want to be wrapped in God's care
Let's us breathe in holy air.
We come with hope
That we can stop walking a tight rope
For God doesn't as us to blindly grope
Rather than we might have strength to cope.
We need a grace more than a trace.
We need a presence to help us brace.
We long for the time and space
That can guide us to see God's face.
So, come, Holy Spirit move in our lives
Come and help us be satisfied.
To know that with you we are enough
And whisper our name with more love.
For our prayers are deep and our hearts are restless
Until in You we can sense there is peace in Your presence.
Calm the storms
Drive doubt away
Be with us God
Not just now...
But every day.
Amen.
