Blessed are You, Eternal One, our God,
Protector
Traveling companion
Palpable spiritual presence
Walking beside me
Invisible as You stand next to my aisle seat at 30,000 feet
Directing me to where I need to go
Lifting me from sadness and despair
Wellspring of encouragement in moments when I need reassurance
Force for inspiration when my words, my melodies and my thoughts are spent
Powerful connector when circumstances suggest the wisdom of physical separation
Persistent source of vision when division, hatred, and cruelty would lead me to look away from realities around us that seem unredeemable
Hope of my life and the lives of many that any action that would bring repair and change in this world would make a significant and lasting impact.
Lift me up
Lift us up
Every morning
Every night
Every moment
So that we will ever be
Your messengers
Of peace,
Of love,
Of life.
Blessed are You, Maker of Peace.
