Today's Prayer

Read Luke 10: 25 - 37 On this day, when the sounds of the Empire threaten to overwhelm the call to global neighborliness, let this song be our prayer: This is my song, O God of all the nations, A song of peace for lands afar and mine. This is my home, the country where my heart is; Here are my hopes, my dreams, my holy shrine; But other hearts in other lands are beating With hopes and dreams as true and high as mine. My country's skies are bluer than the ocean, And sunlight beams on cloverleaf and pine. But other lands have sunlight too and clover, And skies are everywhere as blue as mine. Oh, hear my song, O God of all the nations, A song of peace for their land and for mine. United Methodist Hymnal #437 Submitted by Rev. Rick McKinley, Director of Congregational Development
