A Prayer for the King

We are sharing this prayer with the children and adults in WJS from the Bishop of Salisbury (Rt Revd Stephen Lake):

Please join us as we pray for King Charles

Dear God,

We thank you for your teaching and example through Jesus. We pray for the King as he prepares for his Coronation. May you help him to be a peacemaker, pure in heart, merciful and hungry for righteousness. We pray that you will also help us to shine brightly in the world around us, and ‘be’ who you have called us to be as we all work together for a hopeful future in which all creation can flourish.

Amen.
