O Father, we ask You to bless us,
and keep us in Your love.
May L'Arche be a true home,
where the poor in Spirit may find life;
A place where those who are suffering
may find comfort and peace.
Lord, give us hearts that are open,
hearts that are humble and gentle,
so that we may welcome those You send,
with tenderness and compassion.
Give us hearts full of mercy,
that we may love and serve;
And where discord is found,
may we be able to heal and bring peace;
And see in the one who is suffering
the living presence of Your son.
Lord, through the hands of Your little ones,
we ask You to bless us.
Through the eyes of those who are rejected,
we ask You to smile on us.
Lord, grant freedom and fellowship,
and unity to all the world;
And on the day of Your coming,
welcome all people into Your Kingdom.
Amen.
