Keep us alert on our journeying, God:
full of wonder
strong in your strength
cherished in our weakness.
Summon us to live
in your loving justice
with friend and with stranger
and with those we find hard to love.
In bad times and good times
you are always with us,
Gifter of the moments
of our nights and days.
