Here’s a thoughtful invitation to prayer and
hope in a time of lament or tragedy. It was written by Cheryl Lawrie, and

Let There Be Light
In the darkest night
it is not possible to believe
that light will come.
it is not possible to believe
that light will come.
Because light has come before,
doesn’t mean it will again.
doesn’t mean it will again.
Hold faith tonight
for those who see the darkness
stretch before them –
for those who see the darkness
stretch before them –
who know no other truth than that –
whose barren-ness prevails,
who are buffeted by despair,
who cannot breathe for fear.
who are buffeted by despair,
who cannot breathe for fear.
Join your prayer to God’s:
let there be light.
let there be light.
