A prayer for today

This prayer comes from the final verse of a song by Jeffrey Rowthorn ( 1978) which was used when the Pope was in the U.K. recently. In a way it is ironic as so many feel prevented from doing what they might by rules and hierarchy.

Faith , hope and love restoring,

May we serve as You intend ,

And, amid the cares that claim us,

Hold in mind eternity.
