A Christian Prayer for Peace
Oh Lord, you love justice and you establish peace on earth.
We bring before you the disunity of today’s world:
The absurd violence, and the many wars,
Which are breaking the courage of the peoples around the world;
Human greed and injustice,
Which breed hatred and strife.
Send your spirit and renew the face of the earth;
Teach us to be compassionate towards all people, made in your image;
Strengthen the will of all those
Who fight for justice and peace,
And give us that peace which the world cannot give.
Amen
