Words of Prayer: 03/22/26

O Eternal One, our Rock and our Refuge, in You we place our trust. You are our Shield and our Help in the midst of our distress. To You we cry out when evil overwhelms us; for how could we worship and praise You while anguish holds us captive? How could we lift our hands toward heaven when despair engulfs us? Let Your grace shine upon us, and deliver us from the tension that reduces us to silence, so that we may celebrate You within Your assembly.

Stretch out Your hands and deliver us from the raging waves of life. Grant us Your peace, so that we may sing a new song in Your honor and lift the cup of our deliverance.

In the name of Jesus, we pray.

Amen.
