Dear Methodists of Park County and beyond, As war continues in Ukraine we need to continue to pray. Today the UMC put out a new hymn written by Carolyn Winfrey Gillette in response to the war in Ukraine. It is sung to the tune of “This Is my Song.” May it be a guide for us to pray. WE PRAY FOR PEACE
We pray for peace, O God of love and justice, as once again, we face a time of war. The meek and humble try — amid the crisis -- to love and build, to nurture and restore. May leaders hear the truth the prophets teach us -- that gifts of peace are well worth struggling for. We pray for peace, O Christ who calmed the waters -- who stilled the storm, who stilled disciples’ fear. You spoke with love and with amazing power; be with us now when trouble is so near. May leaders see the miracle you offer -- that words and deeds can calm the nations here. We pray for peace, O Spirit here among us; your love emboldens, judges, and restrains. Take any hate and acts of impulse from us; make leaders wise, amid competing claims. May we seek peace, O God of love and justice; may love and mercy be our highest aims.
