Reverend Michael Wilker
Lutheran Church of the Reformation
Washington, DC
Date of Prayer: 09/18/2017
Opening Prayer Given by the Guest Chaplain:
Let us pray, using the words of Dag Hammarskjold:
Thou who art over us, Thou who art one of us, Thou who art, also within us.
May all see Thee, in me also. May I prepare the way for Thee. May I thank Thee for all that shall fall to my lot. May I also not forget the needs of others.
Keep me in Thy love, as Thou wouldst that all should be kept in mine. May everything in this, my being, be directed to Thy glory, and may I never despair. For I am under Thy hand, and in Thee is all power and goodness.
Give me a pure heart, that I may see Thee; a humble heart, that I may hear Thee; a heart of love, that I may serve Thee; a heart of faith, that I may abide in Thee.
Amen.
