A Prayer from A Dark December Night
Genesis 49:2,8-10; Psalm 72:1-17; Matthew 1:1-17
where is our name
in the thread of justice
woven through the ages?
from the voice of Abraham
to the cry from a manger
where we seek and strive
through imperfection
chaos and confusion
still hoping in what we hear
deep in our hearts
that will not forget
love’s longing for itself in us
one call
one voice
one Light of Christ
guide us now we pray
do not forget us
in these darkest nights
Amen
Where is your name in the thread of love and justice?
What voice do you follow?
