And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.
O God, it is Your will to hold both heaven and earth in a single peace. Let the design of Your great love shine on the waste of our wraths and sorrows, and give peace to Your church, peace among nations, peace in our homes, and peace in our hearts. Lead us from death to life, from despair to hope, from fear to trust, from hate to love, from war to peace. Let peace fill our hearts, our world, and our universe; through Your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
