A Prayer for the World

.

I add my voice in this song of prayer. Can you hear me singing?

For the people of Japan,

and Libya;

for our family and friends and neighbours

.

Hear Our Prayer

Music by Steve Bell,

Lyric by Steve Bell and Jamie Howison

Now we pray to You Father for peace in the world

For the right use of all You have given

A respect for creation in us be restored

Lord in Your mercy Hear our prayer

And we pray for the poor of the world everywhere

And for all those who suffer from hunger and fear

For those who are homeless – for those who need care

Lord in Your mercy Hear our prayer

Now we pray for those close to us, those who have needs

For the friends that we love and for all our families

For these loved ones we pray Jesus grant them Your peace

Lord in Your mercy Hear our prayer

And we pray for ourselves for forgiveness of sins

For the evil around that is born from within

And we ask You oh God that You heal us again

Lord in Your mercy Hear our prayer

Now in closing we ask You dear Father on our knees

Lord for mercy on all those we call our enemies

So that all might be one in Your love and Your peace

Lord in Your mercy Hear our prayer
