Dear Lord,
You are life and the foundation of life
            Now  we test your design; to draw upon your strength.
You are Jesus, bridging and crossing the bridge to us.
            Now  we set our feet upon your bridge.
You accompany us and keep us company.
            Now  we lean on you.
This is all your creation,
            yet  we call upon you to create again and again.
You said  you  would be with us to the end,
            yet  we search for you in every face we see.
Your whirlwind and your silence speak out
            yet  we wish you would interrupt us, shake us awake, and be plain.
(Take a deep breath.  Take three.)
Thy will be done.
Your will be done.
Not mine but thy will be done.
