Prayers in time of Death

Excerpts from “Hear our Prayer” by Kevin Mayhew Publications

When all hope is gone, Lord,
you are born.
When the darkness is complete,
you come.
When things are beyond despair,
we find you.
You roll back the stone
and are there to greet us.
(Graham Jeffery (b. 1935)

Excerpt from "Hear our Prayer" by Kevin Mayhew Publications

Hold our hands, Lord,
walk us through the loneliness
and the valley of our sorrows.
Hold on to us when we're too afraid
to think about the future.
Let us lean on you, Lord,
when we're too weary to continue.
Hold our hands, Lord, through the night
until we see the light of dawn.
