Prayer for Healing
Lord, look upon me with the eyes of Your mercy, may Your healing hand rest
upon me, may Your life-giving powers flow into every cell of my body and into
the depths of my soul, cleansing, purifying, restoring me to wholeness and strength
for service in Your Kingdom. Amen.
Temptation
Let me not deceive myself…
I know what I am considering is wrong.
Let me not be swept away by its immediate attraction.
God the Father, watch over me.
Christ our Lord, strengthen me.
The Holy Spirit, live in me. Amen.
A child’s prayer – Table Grace
Thank you for the world so sweet,
Thank you for the food we eat,
Thank you for the birds that sing,
Thank you, God, for everything. Amen.
The Lord's Prayer
Our Father who art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name,
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done,
On earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive those who trespass against us;
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.
For Thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.
Lord, please let us always remember the wonderful people who make the Holy Cross Lutheran Church what it is today and will be tomorrow. Amen.
