“You, Lord, are our father,

our redeemer you are named forever.

Why do you let us wander, O Lord, from your ways,

and harden our hearts so that we fear you not?

Return for the sake of your servants,

the tribes of your heritage.

Oh, that you would rend the heavens and come down,

while you wrought awesome deeds we could not hope for,

such as they had not heard of from of old.

No ear has ever heard, no eye ever seen, any God but you

doing such deeds for those who wait for him.

Would that you might meet us doing right,

that we were mindful of you in our ways!

Behold, you are angry, and we are sinful;

all of us have become like unclean people,

all our good deeds are like polluted rags;

we have all withered like leaves,

and our guilt carries us away like the wind.

There is none who calls upon your name,

who rouses himself to cling to you;

for you have hidden your face from us

and have delivered us up to our guilt.

Yet, O Lord, you are our father;

we are the clay and you the potter;

we are all the work of your hands.”

 

Isaiah 63: 16b-17, 19b; 64:2-7

Lord of Life,

 

You wondrously formed us because

of Your Love and more wondrously

forgave us for falling away from You.

 

Please help us now as we struggle

against evil destroying your

innocent children.

 

Guide us to do all we can to defend

and protect life from the moment of

conception until natural death.

 

Amen.

 

(Father Groeschel 1933-2014)
