Just and merciful God, the earth is full of your goodness. In hope we pray: 

God, come to our aid.  

Safeguard citizens, and help us to ensure justice for voters. 

God, come to our aid.  

Instill elected officials with wisdom, integrity, and goodwill, and open them to your grace. 

God, come to our aid.  

Prosper efforts to secure the well-being of all people. 

God, come to our aid.  

Our Father . . .  

May God bless us, be gracious to us, and protect us from all harm, through Jesus, healer of every ill. Amen.
