Father of Creation,
God of Justice,
As bombs fall,
Our hearts break,
Lord have mercy.
As tanks advance,
Our souls are sad,
Christ have mercy.
You have placed upon humanity
the possibility and potential
to move towards love and justice,
Yet, at Putin's command,
Carnage &
Catastrophe have been unleashed.
Mariupol suffers,
Lord have mercy.
Innocents die,
Christ have mercy.
And so we pray for the downfall,
Of despots and dictators,
Cast down the mighty from their thrones.
And so we pray for the economic ruin,
Of the masters of war and machinations of evil
Cast down the mighty from their thrones.
Let your divine favour,
Rest upon those,
Who work and move for peace,
Let your divine favour,
Rest upon those,
Who work and move for justice.
Father of Creation,
God of Justice,
We pray for the cessation of war,
And the flourishing of peace.
Amen
