God of truth, your covenant of love gives us life. In awe we pray: 

Faithful God, hear our prayer.  

Give justice to those who are oppressed, unjustly accused, or held captive. 

Faithful God, hear our prayer.  

Confirm our faith by your divine guidance. 

Faithful God, hear our prayer.  

Give unending life to those who have died with their hearts fixed on Christ.  

Faithful God, hear our prayer. 

 Our Father . . .  

May the God of hope fill us with all joy and peace in believing so we may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
