| Prayer for Goodness by Laura Cavicchio Source of All Goodness that lives within us, In this moment In the touch of fingertip to fingertip, hand upon hand, Let us know each other's goodness, Let us feel how fragile, and how strong is our goodness. In this moment We are like one heart beating, We are like one voice crying, For all around us there is hatred: In our streets and homes, in ghettos and shrines and on battlefields, Neighbor upon neighbor, man and woman and child, Nation upon nation. We ask, where is goodness? And in our grief, we shed each other's tears. Source of All Goodness that lives within us, Let us know the power we hold inside. Here is goodness. Here is our hope for peace. In this moment In the touch of fingertip to fingertip, hand upon hand, Let our grief be comforted. Let the power of our goodness flow As holy as a heartbeat among us. In this moment Let the voice of our goodness rise Greater than a cry, Resounding one to another, upon another, Neighbor upon neighbor, man and woman and child, Nation upon nation, One with the goodness of our human family and all Creation. Let all of our goodness be heard, And let it be the power From this moment on. Amen.
