In times of fear and panic,
Let us be a force of calm.
Let those who are trembling,
find us safe to lean upon.
May we be the voice of reason.
May we comfort the oppressed.
May we show our compassion
to those who’re most distressed.

Shawn. this is wonderful and so needed.
Thanks, Candice.
In a season of people kicking wildly at one another, the only real choice is the above.
One hopes.
Shawn, thank you for these inspirational words. I am using this invocation at the Oneonta Rotary Club (NY, USA) today, 9/22/2016.
Greetings to Oneonta Rotary. Thanks, Lynne.
