Speaker 21
Would you pray with me? God of light, the psalmist reminds us that it is you who ignites the light within us. You, O Lord, our God, light up our darkness. As refrains of King Charles the third speech still linger in this room, impress on our hearts this statement of profound faith, light has triumphed over darkness. Let us then claim our own faith in your promise that you will lead the unsighted in ways they have not known.

Speaker 3
Along familiar paths, you will guide them. You turn darkness into light before us. In view of your promise, remind us of our duty to foster compassion, to promote peace, to deepen mutual understanding and to value all people. And as daunting as these tasks may seem, may we be intentional, focused, brave and sacrificial in our efforts to punch holes in the darkness that dares to overwhelm us. Make us bearers of your light, that all may know that when our lives are lived by our faith in you, there is no darkness at all.
In your sovereign name, we pray. Amen.
