Here’s another prayer – featured now in my free e-book For Such a Time as This – that may help you to find words to articulate some of your thoughts and fears when you’re struggling to pray during these dark days of the coronavirus pandemic, reminding you that, however much it may feel like it, you are not alone.
Lord, we need your help at such a time as this
Lord, we need your help at such a time as this,
or we will founder.
We need your strength,
or we will crumble.
We need your encouragement,
or we will despair.
We need your support,
or we will go to pieces.
We need your comfort,
or we will break.
We need your reassurance,
or we will panic.
We need your peace,
or we will grow distraught.
We need your guidance,
or we will be lost.
Lord, quite simply we need you.
Be there for us.
Amen.
