Sabbath Prayer

Lord, have mercy on the suffering.

Give food to those who are hungry;

Give clothing to those who lack;

Give shelter to those who shiver in cold;

Give love to orphans and outcast;

Give comfort to abused women;

Give redemption to the oppressed;

Give assistance to those ravaged by war.

May you teach them to grow toward you

In light of the hardships they suffer.

And to all of these may you give your gospel

That they might attain your kingdom

Where their sufferings will be exchanged

For the joy of your loving presence.


A prayer from the Anawim Homeless Christian Community, Portland, Oregon
