Original reading

Creator of the Universe,

Spiritual Companion, 

Sometimes our words fail us

When we try to express our sense of amazement

For the miracles in this world

For the cycle of day and night, 

And for our very existence.

Sometimes our words elude us

When we attempt to voice our commitment

To your teachings 

About upholding freedom, 

Pursuing justice, 

Acting with kindness and mercy,

And making peace within the human family. 

Our words, our voices have great power

To inspire prayer and action 

That will assure that Your holiness, 

Your Oneness, and Your love

Will become real in our daily lives. 

Give us strength and courage 

To respond to increasing darkness

With our enduring light.
