by Sr. Joyce Lehman
We are all washed clean in the blood of the Lamb,
our sins forgiven, our hearts strengthened,
our lives given purpose.
Grant to me, this day, O Saving God,
the power of the precious blood
so that I might see the violence and disharmony
around and within me.
Move me to bring your life-giving love, your reconciling power
to those who do not know you and cannot hear your voice
in the events of their lives.
May this day be one of praise and honor
to the saving blood of Jesus. Amen.
