A Prayer of Hope for the Economy

Father God, times are hard they say

Many people will lose their jobs.

No one can tell how long this crisis shall last.

No assurance can be given

to all who grope in the dark.

But I believe, dear Father

that this too, shall pass,

and there is no trial we cannot be able to conquer

with faith in our spirits

and courage in our hearts.

Protect us dear God

first of all from despair.

Let not our minds be anxious

but let our spirits have peace

that surpasses all understanding.

May we never lose our hope.

May we never lose sight of our awaited morning

when milk and honey

shall flow into our land once again.

May we walk with steadfast feet.

May we work with steady hands.

And may we always believe

that miracles still happen,

for they do happen

even now as we pray.

Let your abounding Grace cloak us with blessings

and may your strength

keep us from every harm.

Vanquish the fears that wishes only

to cast doubt and hopelessness.

Replace it with a love that never fails,

a love that heals and prevails,

a love to keep us warm

as we hold on to each other

and as we await the abundant land

which You have promised us

with you kind

and mighty Hand!
