Prayer for our Nation

Leader: Let us proclaim the name of the Lord;
and ascribe greatness to our God!

All: Lord your work is perfect. And all your ways are just.
Let your voice be heard today by all the nations!

O God, Judge of the nations, put fear into our hearts,
So that we may know that we are only human.

Father, the whole of creation groans and labours
to be delivered from the bondage of corruption,
into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

Lord Jesus, send forth Your Spirit of Truth
and let this Spirit prove to ‘the powers that be’
how wrong they are about sin, righteousness and judgment.

O Lord, declare the power of your works to Your peoples
and let us be filled with the knowledge of Your glory
as the waters cover the sea.

Gather us, O Lord, in Your name
and may all worship the One True God.

Amen
