Our Holy Mother,
in your glory, we rise to courage.
Your gentle power uplifts.
Your ferocious care protects.
As empires rise and fall,
your brave love sustains
all the earth, era after era.
Provide for us and all –
let every basic need be met
and all excess be redistributed.
May your graciousness move us
to be gracious with others
in accountability and repair.
We strive to live in alignment
with ourselves, each other, and the land.
Keep us from all that deceives and destroys.
On your paths, we find life abundant.
In your company, we return to ourselves.
Under your wings, we shelter each other.
Weaver of Life, Ancient and Unfolding,
How sacred is your Presence!
We lean on your guidance.
We seek your love.
We open to your transformation.
Provide us bread in body and spirit
to sustain us in faith and solidarity.
Companion us with grace
as we seek to live lives of forgiveness and compassion,
repair and accountability.
We remember those who have supported us
as we seek to support others
in all the mess and glory of this human journey.
Guard our minds and hearts from the temptations of domination
and turn our loyalty away from all systems of evil.
For the whole cosmos hums with your wisdom.
Everything that lives, returns to your care.
Our thanks and honor to you,
Gracious Web of Existence,
Our Source and our Home.
Mother of us all,
who dwells within and beyond,
Sacred is your name.
May your holy vision for collective flourishing
come to fruition among us.
May your dreams of justice, love, compassion, and connection be enfleshed on earth.
Provide us today with what we need to be nourished in body, soul, and heart.
Forgive us for the harm we cause as we seek to forgive those who have harmed us.
Lead us away from everything that destroys and liberate us from the hands of evil.
For you are the ultimate source of hope.
Your power-with exceeds all power-over.
Your presence incites eternal wonder.
All praise to you, our comfort and strength.
Amen.
