Prayer for help after the Typhoon
Shay CullenThe fierce winds blow, the rains falls in torrents,
Waterfalls from the sky, the floods rise, the trees are torn and scattered,
The night is totally dark, nothing works, and the cell phones are dead,
The food is spoiled, roofs are torn apart, people cut and killed by flying debris.
Lord, Lord, when will it end we cried?Now it has passed and in misery we live, lacking food and water, power and hope.
Lord gives us strength to bury the dead, heal the wounded.Lord we ask you to inspire the world to come and help.
Envy courage others to serve, to share and give, for we suffer in the disaster of broken homes, washed out roads, broken power lines.Lord Jesus we huddle and pray that your compassion and love will fill the hearts of those who have resources to share and help us and all in dire need.
Amen
