Prayer for Ash Wednesday (2)

Jesus come and save us,
We are but dust, 
We are like ashes,
but you can touch our unclean souls.

Jesus come and forgive us,
Our hearts are heavy,
Our burdens are great,
Cleanse us with the water of life.
Jesus come and heal us,
Restore our sight,
Teach us truth,

Speak to us words that bring us wholeness.
Jesus touch us with your heart of love,
Cleanse us with the water of life,
Restore our sight that we may see, 
Teach us truth that we may lead Godly lives.

Prayer of Aspiration

I have broken out of my prison
but I am still not free.

I have been comforted in weakness
yet I have too little strength.

I have experienced the warmth and depth of human friendship
but I am not fulfilled.

I seek, I give, I possess
and yet I yearn – 

It is You I seek, O Lord,
my unlosable friend forever.

Fill me up, Lord –
complete me –

I will be restless…
Until I rest in You.
