A Prayer for Our Leaders

We are grateful for those who lead:
Worldwide, national, and local,
Scientists, medical personnel,
First responders and caregivers,
All who run into the fighting
When it would be easy to run away

In this time of widespread danger
May the Creator of Everything
Answer your calls for help
 
May the One Who Blesses Us
Bless you and keep you safe
Even as those around us are falling
 
May the Giver of Wisdom
Imbue you who lead us forward
With vision and strength of purpose
 
May the Grantor of Life
Help you to help us
As we struggle to stay alive
 
And may the Source of Our Souls
Bring you solutions
So that this trial may quickly pass.
 
Amen.
