When we are despairing and see no way ahead
Roll back the stone!
When we are frightened and fear for our life
Roll back the stone!
When we are hungry, thirsty and need shelter
Roll back the stone!
When we need a miracle to change our lives
Roll back the stone!
Song “My only hope is you” https://youtu.be/Oy2oevXSTyU
Make me a clean heart
And renew a right Spirit within me
Give me again your joy
We say the Lord’s Prayer in our own language
Deuteronomy 32
Give ear, O heavens, and I will speak;
let the earth hear the words of my mouth.
2 May my teaching drop like the rain,
my speech condense like the dew;
like gentle rain on grass,
like showers on new growth.
3 For I will proclaim the name of the Lord;
ascribe greatness to our God!
We pray for the people of Ukraine, and Russia, for Hong Kong, for Taiwan, for China, for Syrians, for Yemenis, for Palestinians, for Rohingas, for Uighurs, for the US ; For those suffering from flooding, drought earthquakes, and cyclones due to climate change, for the millions of refugees, for homeless people, for those who are hungry, thirsty or in prison, for the terrified and deranged; for those on strike, for doctors nurses, teachers and for the government to do the best for its people and not the worst; for our children, grandchildren and a better future for us all. Amen
May the God who shakes heaven and earth
Whom death could not contain
Who lives to disturb and heal us
Bless us with power to go forth
and be the good news. Amen
