Deepen our gratitude, O God.
Push is so deeply into our hearts and minds and souls:
So deeply into who we are and how we live;
So deeply so that the moment we say Thank you;
Our lives are turned in the direction of compassion and kindness and justice and peace.
Deepen our gratitude, O God;
So that we pray not just with our words, but with our lives.
So that we lift our eyes not just towards You, but also towards each other.
So that when others turn to You in their need, our hand is there to lift them up.
Amen.
