A Prayer for Work

May 6th, 2009 by ggg | No Comments | Filed in Religious

Eternal God, accept our daily labor!
We offer it most humbly to Your throne,
As joined with friend and co-worker and neighbor
We build the world that You began alone.

If in Your service we should find our fortune,
Hold us close, so we remember You,
And help us use our wisdom to apportion
To justice all that by Your law is due.

And if to serve You we must work through hardship,
Help us love our seeds enough to grow,
And help us see that underneath Your guardship
Our work bears fruit in more ways than we know.

Help us on our quest to take the day
That come tomorrow, we still come to pray.
