Lord, comfort those who grieve this day
in LA and DC
who (numbed by sorrow)
find it hard to feel.
Sustain the victims of despair
with undergirding grace
as they accept their plight and start to heal.

May we who have a role to play
in minimizing pain
resolve to render aid with open hearts.
Unite us in a common cause
in spite of what divides.
Help us discern and do what is our part. Amen.
