Hymn for Fuel:

1 For the healing of the nations,

Lord, we pray with one accord,

for a just and equal sharing

of the things that earth affords.

To a life of love in action

help us rise and pledge our word.

2 Lead us forward into freedom;

from despair your world release,

that, redeemed from war and hatred,

all may come and go in peace.

Show us how through care and goodness

fear will die and hope increase.

3 All that kills abundant living,

let it from the earth be banned:

pride of status, race, or schooling,

dogmas that obscure your plan.

In our common quest for justice

may we hallow life’s brief span.

4 You, Creator God, have written

your great name on humankind.

For our growing in your likeness,

bring the life of Christ to mind

that by our response and service

earth its destiny may find.

A Guide to Word and Prayer

Find below a general guide for spending time in prayer with the word.

Set aside 30 minutes
Read through the text twice (5 minutes)
Read and pray through the text (15 minutes)
- Take time to meditate (think/ponder) on each section or each verse, considering what the author is saying.
- Pray to God what the Word is communicating.
- For example Psalm 85:4, "Restore us again, O God of our salvation, and put away your indignation toward us!" You could pray for God to not be angry with Manurewa, but rather visit us and restore salvation to the people.
Read through the text one more time and then pray for whatever the Lord puts on your heart (10 minutes)
