Prayer Before Mass

God, our Father, Your Word is creative, Sustaining what You have made.

May Holy Scripture bring me new hope In the blessings which I await.

Lord Jesus, Remembering Your love, In Your care, I am gratefully blessed.

I am one in the communion of faith Gathered for Word and Eucharist.

Holy Spirit, Come in wind or whisper, Giving me comfort and grace.

Constant companion on my life's journey, Be my help in struggles I face.

Amen.
