Calm me, O Lord...
Tonight I feel sad…I feel disconnected, scared, fearful, worried, disappointed…sad.So, I come before God, bow my head, and pray…
Calm me, O Lord, as You still the storm. Still me, O Lord, keep me from harm. Let all the tumult within me cease. Enfold me, Lord, in Your peace.
Father, bless the work that is done and the work that is to be.
Father, bless the servant that I am and the servant that I will be.
Thou Lord and God of power, shield and sustain me this night.
I will lie down this night with God, and God will lie down with me; I will lie down this night with Christ, and Christ will lie down with me; I will lie down this night with the Spirit, and the Spirit will lie down with me; God and Christ and the Spirit, be lying down with me.
The peace of God be over me to shelter me,
Under me to uphold me,
About me to protect me,
Behind me to direct me,
Ever with me to save me.
The peace of all peace be mine this night in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
