Prayer for Safety
Posted: Mon Aug 18, 2008 10:28 amPrayer for Safety 
We are afraid to walk the streets.
We are afraid to go outside.
We are afraid of the young men
with guns in their hands,
drugs in their blood,
and death a breath away.
O God,
hear our prayer
for families,
neighbors,
and friends.
Deliver us from this violence,
from danger and death.
Give us the courage to face each day
and to walk the streets
in safety
once again.
Amen.

Psalm 118
A Song of Victory
O give thanks to the LORD, for he is good;
his steadfast love endures forever!
Let Israel say,
His steadfast love endures forever.
We are afraid to walk the streets.
We are afraid to go outside.
We are afraid of the young men
with guns in their hands,
drugs in their blood,
and death a breath away.
O God,
hear our prayer
for families,
neighbors,
and friends.
Deliver us from this violence,
from danger and death.
Give us the courage to face each day
and to walk the streets
in safety
once again.
Amen.
