One: For each load that we will bear on this journey,
Many: God is the power and the strength that will sustain us.
One: For each diversion and obstruction that might impede,
Many: God is the presence and the wisdom that will guide us.
One: For each place where we might find rest,
Many: God is the peace and the stillness that will restore us.
One: For each of the reason we find ourselves thankful,
Many: God is the reason of our worship and praise.

Many: God is the love behind our faith, fellowship, justice work, and service. Amen
