Prayer Litany
(based on Psalm 85)
Lord,
you were favorable to your land.
You
restored our fortunes.
You forgave the
iniquity of your people.
You pardoned all our
sin.
Restore
us again,
O
God of our salvation.
Will you not revive
us again,
so we may rejoice in
you?
Show
us your steadfast love, O Lord.
Grant
us your salvation.
Let us hear what God
the Lord will speak,
for he will speak
peace to his people, to his faithful,
to those who turn to
him in their hearts.
Surely
his salvation is at hand for those who fear him,
that
his glory may dwell in our land.
Steadfast love and
faithfulness will meet.
Righteousness and
peace will kiss each other.
Faithfulness will
spring up from the ground.
Righteousness will
look down from the sky.
The
Lord will give what is good.
Our
land will yield its increase.
Righteousness will go
before him
and make a path for
his steps.
