8/21 - Praying for Rain

Lord,

Rain down your mercy,
Your compassion,
Your healing, 
Upon a people longing for relief
From the burning of all they know.

Renew the earth and
Quench the fires 
That are taking life 
And beauty from all around us.

Thank you for the service
Of all of the men and women
Who are battling the flames.

Allow those fighting fires
To find relief and rest
To make a difference
And keep your hand over them 
To keep them safe.

Send the rain, Lord,
Please send the rain.

Amen.
