Advent God, meet us as we face the darkness of our world that we may embrace you in the shadow sand move out to greet your light.
Dispel our fears Increase our hope
Enlighten us as we search for truth amongst the clamour of war that we may have courage to proclaim peace and determination to seek justice.
Dispel our fears Increase our hope
Embolden us to cry out in the wilderness that we may find a voice to disarm power and a way to challenge prejudice.
Dispel our fears Increase our hope
Guide us to make straight your paths that we may guard against self-righteousness and look to you for help.
Dispel our fears Increase our hope
Move us as we reach out to those in need that we may respond with urgency and wait with patience.
Dispel our fears Increase our hope
Challenge us with your promise of salvation that we may put aside all fear and proclaim the hope of liberation.
Dispel our fears Increase our hope And grant us peace.
Amen.
