Father,
A new year is beginning for us,
as we turn away from the world’s calendar and return to yours.
Shine on us, Lord, and light our way!
We confess we are an impatient people,
but if your light burns away our restlessness, we will not wander.
We confess we are a complacent people,
but if your light melts our inflated egos, we will watch for you.
We confess we are a weary people,
but if your light shines upon us we will not sleep,
but will rise in the warmth of your love.
Restore us, O Lord God of hosts;
let your face shine, that we may be saved.
