(Vol .31 No 09) 25 March 2007 Psalter:
Week 1
‘Fifth Sunday in Lent’
Lord, open our eyes, that we may
see you
in our brothers and sisters.
Lord,
open our ears, that we may hear the
cries
of the hungry, the cold, the frightened,
the oppressed.
Lord,
open our hearts, that we may love
each other
as you love us.
Renew
us in your spirit, Lord, and make
us one.
