Comfort those who suffer in body, mind, or spirit
Those who thirst for your mercy and grace
Those who yearn for the peace of Christ.

Bright Morning Star, Holy God

Have mercy on those who struggle to follow
Your desire, your hope, your way,
May your Name be known to them.

Bright Morning Star, Holy God
Joy of my heart,

God of love, pour out abundantly like
A river, like flood waters, like a dam opening
Your love overflowing on this house and that

Bright Morning Star, Holy God
Joy of my heart,
Water of life
Gift to all
Hear our prayer.

God of the morning, God of water, Giver
of life in you I am complete for through you
I know love, I become love, yours.

Bright Morning Star, Holy God
Joy of my heart,
Water of life
Gift to all
Hear our prayer.

Amen.
