NIGHT PRAYER
It is night.
The night is for stillness. Let us be still in the Creator's presence.
It is night after a long day.
What has been done has been done.
What has not been done, has not been done,
Let it be.
The night is dark.
Let our fears of the darkness of the world and of our own lives rest in you.
The night is quiet.
Let the quietness of your peace enfold us, all dear to us, and all who have no peace.
The night heralds the dawn.
Let us look expectantly to a new day, new joys, new possibilities.
In the name of the Creator we pray.
Amen.
Found the original in the New Zealand Prayer Book. Yes, I sprang for a used copy and I believe I may have finally, finally found what I've been looking for for a very long time. I've adapted the wording just a little bit.
