Wisdom come again

Wisdom of Solomon 10:15–21 

As Wisdom delivered God's people of old,
we pray with the oppressed today.
We pray for liberation,
we pray for Wisdom to come again.

As Wisdom has entered souls before,
we pray for God's prophets today;
we pray for resistance of injustice,
we pray for Wisdom to come again.

As Wisdom has guided God's people before,
we pray for all who still seek your Way;
we pray for the peace we strive for,
we pray for Wisdom to come again.

As Wisdom has sheltered God's people of old,
we pray for the scared and lost today;
we pray for protection and light;
we pray for Wisdom to come again.

As Wisdom has travelled with God's people through time,
we pray for ourselves and our world;
we pray for your presence with us,
we pray for Wisdom to come again.

Amen.


this prayer might work well in two voices, taking two lines each in turn
