Fear less and hope more,

Rosemary's Blessing

May God grant you the strength and faith to

Count your blessings, not your crosses;
Count your gains not your losses.
Count your joys not your woes;
Count your friends not your foes.
Count your smiles not your tears;
Count your courage not your fears.
Count your health not your wealth;
And love your neighbor as much as yourself.

Rosemary’s Blessing

Grant us, Lord God,

A vision of your world as your love would have it: 

A world where the weak are protected, and none go hungry or poor; 

A world where the riches of creation are shared, and everyone can enjoy them; 

A world where different races and cultures live in harmony and mutual respect; 

A world where peace is built with justice, and justice is guided by love.

Give us the inspiration and courage to build it, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.
