Prayer for America 09/16/05

Sing out in celebration! Raise your voices to the heavens in gratitude and joy, for we are a strong and mighty people living in a strong and mighty nation! Sing for the cities that pulse with ideas and opportunities. Sing for the country where life bursts forth in bold colors. Sing for the prairies where the big sky reigns. Sing for the wheat fields, the corn fields, the thundering plains. Sing for the seashores, the beaches, and the lakes. Sing for the communities where people build homes and dreams. Sing for the neighborhoods where children laugh and play. Sing out, O America, sing loud and free and clear. We are a nation among nations. Let your voices ring out from sea to shining sea!
