Logos: Psalm 90:12-17

Loosely inspired by Psalm 90:12-17

Teach us, O God,

Open our eyes to the fleeing of the days.

Open our minds to the potential of our time.

Show us the work you want us to do,

and what is to be gained.

Turn your attention to us,

and see us with your eyes,

eyes of compassion,

eyes of grace and forgiveness.

When we wake in the morning, 

and your light shines through the window,

open our hearts to know your love.

Love that never stops,

Love that is loyal and unending.

Chase us with your grace 

so that we know your love

and rejoice in its glory.

During each day,

whether it brings pleasure or pain,

Suffering or joy, 

Bring us the gladness of your presence in it.

Open our lives to the work you do around us.

Make your breath clear in the breeze of the days,

and your touch apparent 

as we sit down to share a meal.

May your Spirit be the power of our lives,

and may we find you in our years.

Grant us your favor.

May the work we do for you, prosper.

May the work of our hands be pleasing to you.

Every day of our lives.
