Evening Prayer – 31 July 2019
The sun has set and the Vesper Lights flicker and glow
On this feast day of Saint Ignatius of Loyola
I give you thanks, O Lord
For the wisdom of your Saints
For Ignatius
For Thomas Merton
For Francis of Assisi
For all of your children whom you have called
Lord, help us to be prophets
Speaking out against injustice
Speaking out against hatred
Speaking out against all that divides
As we seek to serve you, Lord
Make us instruments of your peace
Make us instruments of your justice
Make us instruments of your grace
Make us instruments of your mercy
Now as my eyelids grow heavy
I lift this humble prayer to you
Dona Nobis Pacem
Grant Us Peace
A wee prayer from the heart of your Padre…
