You Who Are Our Strength and Our Song, Hear Us When We Call to You

A prayer based on Psalm 118

Our God and Father, you who are our strength and our song, hear us when we call to you out of our distress. Stand by us and help us when it seems like everyone is against us. Replace our fear with the courage that comes from knowing you are our refuge, so that we may give you thanks for your goodness and neverending love, through Christ our Lord. Amen.
