Lord Jesus Christ and God our Father,
you have loved us and through grace you
have given us eternal comfort and good hope.
Comfort our hearts and strengthen them in every
good work and word; we can do nothing on our own,
and we must seek to do not our will, but your will.
Be mindful, O God, of your mercy and of your
steadfast love--they have been from of old.
Bestow them upon the peoples plucked
from the lands you have given them,
and show us how we can help.
