An American Prayer at Electiontide

An American Prayer

Lord, do not turn from us as we turn from dispossessed refugees and impoverished immigrants

Lord, do not treat us as we treat those who come penniless to our jails, courts, and prisons

Lord, do not despise us as we despise all those we regard as less than ourselves

Lord, do not destroy us as we are determined to destroy our enemies

In your mercy, lead us in the paths of righteousness and peace

to act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with you

But not yet
