Our Father God, you encircle us with your great love,
through Jesus our friend and master.
Thank you for all your goodness to us -
this beautiful county in which we live,
the delights of music making and talking with friends.
As members of your family on earth,
keep ys ever close to you, we pray.
May we grow in the Holy Spirit
and bring your good news to our world,
today, tomorrow and always. Amen.
