Tomorrow is Word of God Sunday which inspires this prayer...
A word from you always lifts me, up, Lord
so I'm praying for a word or two night...
Lift me up with a word of faith
to help me trust in your presence,
and your desire to free me from fear...
Lift me up with a word of love
to help me see your image
dwelling in my soul...
Lift me up with a word of hope
to cut the darkness with your light
and help me trust the peace you offer...
Lift me up with a word of light
to help me see where you would lead
and what you ask of me this day...
Lift me up with a word of healing
to soothe the ache within my soul,
the hurt within my heart...
Lift me up with a word of trust:
trust in those who counsel me, who care for me
and guide me when I'm lost...
Lift me up with a word of peace
to free my soul from all that troubles me
and locks me in my fears...
Lift me up with a word of wisdom
to clear my mind of all that keeps me
from trusting in your promise...
Lift me up with a word of strength
when I am weak and cannot move
for fear of stumbling, falling, failing...
Lift me up with a word of mercy:
refresh my heart and soul
with the grace that only you can give...
Lift me up with a word of wonder
to open my mind and heart again
to believe in beauty wherever I find it...
Lift me up with a word of courage
to speak what's in my heart today
and take the path I need to walk...
Lift me up with a word of joy
in play and laughter, prayer and song,
in friendship, care and love...
Lift me up with a word from you, Lord,
to help me trust you know my name
and all I need to live and love...
Lift me up with a word of power
to raise my soul from loneliness
and fill my heart with peace...
Lift me up with a word of faith
to help me trust in your presence,
and your desire to free me from fear...
Lift me up with a word of love
to help me see your image
dwelling in my soul...
Lift me up with a word of hope
to cut the darkness with your light
and help me trust the peace you offer...
Lift me up with a word of light
to help me see where you would lead
and what you ask of me this day...
Lift me up with a word of healing
to soothe the ache within my soul,
the hurt within my heart...
Lift me up with a word of trust:
trust in those who counsel me, who care for me
and guide me when I'm lost...
Lift me up with a word of peace
to free my soul from all that troubles me
and locks me in my fears...
Lift me up with a word of wisdom
to clear my mind of all that keeps me
from trusting in your promise...
Lift me up with a word of strength
when I am weak and cannot move
for fear of stumbling, falling, failing...
Lift me up with a word of mercy:
refresh my heart and soul
with the grace that only you can give...
Lift me up with a word of wonder
to open my mind and heart again
to believe in beauty wherever I find it...
Lift me up with a word of courage
to speak what's in my heart today
and take the path I need to walk...
Lift me up with a word of joy
in play and laughter, prayer and song,
in friendship, care and love...
Lift me up with a word from you, Lord,
to help me trust you know my name
and all I need to live and love...
Lift me up with a word of power
to raise my soul from loneliness
and fill my heart with peace...
Protect me, Lord, while I'm awake
and watch over me while I sleep
that awake, I might keep watch with you
and asleep, rest in your peace...
Amen.
