Prayer on a Rainy Hilltop

Guide me, Truth of all that is,

let me not be taken by these lies,

let me not feel trapped,

let me not succumb

to any of my former strategies

Guide me, Life that’s daily new,

million ways of upward growth,

the ever-folding pathways for connection,

intertwine me through and through,

let me breathe your fragrance, too,

let your loving law be my protection

Guide me, everlasting Love,

give me kind and healing touch,

let me witness your almighty power,

let me be a member

of the bliss-fulfilling choir

that lifts us all and blesses 

every day, each hour.
