Holy God,
Your kingdom may seem a
mysterious place,
surrounded by clouds and
thick darkness,
but we know
righteousness and justice
are the foundation of
your throne.
Protect us from foul
spirits, lest we
fail to listen for your
voice; lest we accept
no correction and fail
to trust or draw near you,
lest we let clouds and thick
darkness keep us away.
