Prayer for the Protection of Religious Liberty
O God our Creator,
Through the power and working of your Holy Spirit,
you call us to live out our faith in the midst of
the world,
bringing the light and the saving truth of the
Gospel
to every corner of society.
We ask you to bless us
in our vigilance for the gift of religious
liberty.
Give us the strength of mind and heart
to readily defend our freedoms when they are
threatened;
give us courage in making our voices heard
on behalf of the rights of your Church
and the freedom of conscience of all people of
faith.
Grant, we pray, O heavenly Father,
a clear and united voice to all your sons and
daughters
gathered in your Church
in this decisive hour in the history of our
nation,
so that, with every trial withstood
and every danger overcome—
for the sake of our children, our grandchildren,
and all who come after us—
this great land will always be "one nation, under
God,
indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
