Prayer A song for Comfort Before Surgery for H.J.L.

A song for Comfort Before Surgery for H.J.L.
Listen!
Because I know You will hear me
As I fear this unknown I must enter,
Surrendering my self, my authority,
If only for a brief while.
Listen!
Because I know You will hear
As I praise You at this season
Spreading warmth of renewal over cold earth,
Even as my soul’s chill is warmed.
Listen!
Because I know You are there:
Hearing me,
Warming me,
Renewing me,
Leading me through this time
To a place of health and vigor.

Prayer Psalm 77

Psalm 77
When I cry my voice trembles with fear
When I call out it cracks with anger.
How can I greet the dawn with song
When darkness eclipses the rising sun
To Whom shall I turn
When the clouds of the present eclipse the rays of tomorrow.
Turn me around to yesterday
That I may be consoled by its memories.
Were not the seas split asunder
Did we not once walk together through the waters
To the dry side
Did we not bless the
Bread that came forth from the heavens
Did your voice not reach my ears
And direct my wanderings
The waters, the lightning, the thunder
Remind me of yesterday’s triumphs
Let the past offer proof of tomorrow
Let it be by comforter and guarantor.
I have been here before
Known the fright and found your companionship.
I enter the sanctuary again
To wait the echo of your promise.

Prayer Psalm 16

Psalm 16,
These are among David’s golden words.
Watch over me, God,
for I seek refuge in You.
You said to the Lord:
“You are my Master,
But my good fortune is not Your concern.
“Rather, the holy ones on the earth
-You care for them
And for the great ones whom I should emulate.
“When their pain multiplies,
They know to speedily turn to another.
But I cannot even pour their libations because of guilt,
I cannot even lift their names to my lips.”
The Lord is the Portion, which is mine by right,
My Cup.
You nurture my destiny.
Labor pains turn into pleasantness—
So, too, I just see my inheritance of beauty.
I will bless the Lord who counsels me,
Though at night my conscience afflicts me.
I keep the Lord continually before me;
Because of God-Who-is my Right-Hand,
I shall not break down.
So my mind is happy,
My whole being joyful;
Even my body rests secure.
For You shall not abandon my soul
To the world of the dead,
Nor let the one who loves You
See his own grave.
Give me directions on life’s road.
With Your Presence,
I am filled up with joys,
With the delights that ever come
From Your Strong Arm.
