Lamb of God you take away the Sin of the world.

Have Mercy on us.

This week ends where it began...with Jesus. We pray to become instruments of Pardon and Faith. Yet we know that our world is broken, imperfect, and sometimes impossible. We confess this reality to God. We pray that we might continue to try to reconcile, forgive, let go, and pardon.

We also gratefully declare that it is Christ's forgiveness alone that can cover this world with mercy.

Your comments here have created a sacred space. Bless you all.

Thank you to my talented colleague, Paul Damico-Carper for this beautiful composition and setting of "Lamb of God." I've been listening to it on repeat, and now it is the song of my heart.
