Here’s a prayer of thanksgiving and petition based on Psalm 80:7-15 written by John Birch.
Restore Us, O Lord
(based on Psalm 80:7-15)
Your people,
a particular people,
chosen and cherished
from the beginning of time;
lavished and loved,
sheltered and shepherded
through sunshine and storm.

Restore us, O Lord.
Make your face shine upon us
that we might be saved.
Make your face shine upon us
that we might be saved.
Your children,
prodigal children,
wandering far from home;
a wilderness people
yet never forgotten,
never separated
from the warmth of your love.
