Make me fully present in this sacred moment.
Give me loving eyes to see all persons
As they are and hope to be,
Ears to hear with empathy
The thoughts and feelings spoken.
Assist me to be honest with myself,
And treat with charity and justice
Each person I meet.
Grant me courage to greet with humble gratitude the majesty of creation,
A healing hand to promote human flourishing
And make of the world
The garden of love and delight intended.
