When the skies grow dark and buildings fall, then hear us:
have mercy on us, Lord.
When deceivers come and the nations rise in anger, then hear us: have mercy on us, Lord.
When famines begin, and when the earth shakes to bring the future to birth, then hear us:
have mercy on us, Lord.
When we take our stand to witness to your truth, when our people are arrested and betrayed, then hear us:
have mercy on us, Lord.
When the sun is darkened and the moon fails to give us light, and when the stars fall from the sky, then hear us:
have mercy on us, Lord.
When you come in your great power and glory with your angels from heaven:
Then, Lord, gather us from the four winds— from the ends of the earth, to be with you forever and ever. Amen.
