NIGHT PRAYER: Sunday 2/16

On Sundays, Night Prayer takes its lead from some element of the day's liturgy.  Both the first reading and gospel at mass lay out "two ways" for living one's life: blessing and woe.  We follow Jesus who is our way, our truth and our life. 

There are so many roads I might travel, Lord,

so many paths I might walk, 

so many highways, byways and shortcuts

so many back roads, freeways and trails...

 

There are so many crossroads,

on ramps and off ramps,

exits, detours and alternate routes,

so many choices and so many options

for finding my way to you and to home...

 

Send me your Spirit to lead the way,

to guide my steps with wisdom and care,

to direct my journey along your path,

to walk your way, Lord,

the Jesus way...

 

You are are my way, my truth and my life,

yours is the road that leads me home...

 

You lead me safely to where you call me:

home to you and your merciful arms,

home to the place you've prepared for me,

home to your peace and joy without end...

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.
