Prayers of hope < 3
of 4 >
magi
For
those seekers
who put truth before comfort
and hope before security
we give thanks.
Grant
us a wise man’s hope—
light in darkness,
use for our gifts,
God at the end.
For
those we know
who do not know
we will find what we worship
we pray tonight
and for
those we do not know
trying to understand
and needing wisdom
we pray tonight.
Written
to follow the reading of Matthew 2, 1-12 in a series of visual Prayers
of
hope in the carol service at St John's, West
Ealing in
2011, accompanied by visual images.
