PRAYING FOR OTHERS: SEAFARERS

PRAYING FOR OTHERS: SEAFARERS
From Psalm 107
Lord of all goodness and eternal love, we pray for those who go to sea and so earn their living:
in danger give them courage,
reinforce their skill,
turn their prayers towards you
and save them in distress;
calm the raging of the storm
and bring them home to the safety of their harbour.
We thank you that seafarers perceive your wonder and your majesty, and experience your awesome power:
Lord,
let them give thanks to you
for the wonderful things you do,
and so testify to your greatness;
for your glory's sake. Amen.
