Sunday Prayer: All Saints' Day, Grace Unbound

Holy One, God of all that was and is and ever will be

Bless all the saints with the light of your love

Bless those who have gone before us and

those who are with us still and

those who will be 

Holy One, God of all that was and is and ever will be

Set the clock of our hearts for the days ahead

Set our hearts on gratitude and hope

Set our hearts on love, you

and all that will be

Holy One, God of all that was and is and ever will be

Help us in our time of tribulation and anxiety

those who are weary from the storms

hurricanes and life, politics and elections

and all that will be

Holy One, God of all that was and is and ever will be

Guide us with your compassion, teach us

to rise and follow you, even when bound

by fear and constrained by stuff

- all that is and will be

Holy One, God of all that was and is and ever will be

Fill our anxious hearts with peace, let us hear

Jesus' words, "Come" and "unbind him"

Unbind her, unbind us. Let us all reach out

in love unbound for what is and ever will be.

Amen.
