You know the who's, the what's, the why's, the how's of everything that has led up to this time/place/situation...

Lady of Peace who hears the cries of the world
Extend your power through me and with me;

Bless those who are suffering.

Bless those who are dying.

Bless the lost unknowing dead.

Bless those who love.

Bless those who are helping.

Bless those who are scared.

Bless those who can do nothing but wait.

Bless those who are falsely suspected.

Bless those of limited understanding.

Bless those upholding civil liberties.

Bless those who, though well intentioned, do wrong.

who love and hold us dear;
may we feel their comfort, too.

Bless those who work and pray for peace
throughout the good, green Mother Earth.

Native African Prayer For Peace...

 Almighty God, the Great Thumb we cannot evade to tie any knot,

The Roaring Thunder that splits mighty trees,

The all-seeing Lord on high who sees even the foot prints of an antelope on a rock mass here on Earth,

You are the one who does not hesitate to respond to our call. 

You are the cornerstone of peace.

Mayan Prayer For Peace...

From the North, House of Night
May Wisdom ripen in us
So we may know all from within

From the West, House of Transformation
May Wisdom be transformed into right action
So we may do what must be done

From the South, House of the Eternal Sun
May Right Action reap the harvest
So we may enjoy the fruits of planetary being

From Above, House of Heaven
Where star people and ancestors gather
May their Blessings come to us now

From Below, House of Earth
May the heartbeat of her crystal core
Bless us with Harmonies to end all war

From the Center, Galactic Source
Which is everywhere at once
May everything be known
as the light of mutual Love

Oh Yum Hunab Ku Evam Maya E Ma Ho

Taoist Prayer For Peace...

 If there is to be peace in the world,
There must be peace in the nations.

If there is to be peace in the nations,
There must be peace in the cities.

If there is to be peace in the cities,
There must be peace between neighbors.

If there is to be peace between neighbors,
There must be peace in the home.

If there is to be peace in the home,
There must be peace in the heart.

~ Lao-tsu's Prayer for Peace

Prayers From The Ojibway Nation...

 

 We know that in all Creation,

Only the human family

Has Strayed from the Sacred Way.

We know that we are the ones who are divided;

And we are the ones who must come back together

To Walk in the Sacred Way.

Sacred One, 

Teach us love, compassion, and honor; 

That we may heal the earth

And heal each other.

~ Prayer of the Ojibway Nation

 

Oh, Great Spirit,
whose voice I hear in the winds,
and whose breath gives life
to all the world, hear me!

I come to you as one of your many
children; 

I am weak...I am small...

I need your wisdom
and your strength.

Let me walk in beauty,
and make my eyes ever behold
the red and purple sunsets.

Make my hands respect
the things you have made,
and make my ears sharp
so I may hear your voice.

Make me wise
so I may understand
the things you have taught my people.

Let me learn
the lessons you have hidden
in every leaf and rock.

I ask for wisdom and strength
not to be greater than my brothers
and sisters, but to fight my greatest
enemy—myself.

Make me always ready
to come before you with clean hands
and a straight eye,

So as life fades away, as a fading sunset,
my spirit may come to you
without shame.

~ George Walters, White Earth Chippewa

Let peace be widespread
Let the sea glisten like the greenstone
May your path be straight
Like the flight of the dove
Go in peace and with my blessings

Zoroastrian Prayer For Peace...

We pray to God to eradicate all the

misery in the world;

that understanding triumph

over ignorance,

that generosity triumph over indifference,

that trust triumph over contempt, 

and that truth triumph over falsehood.

~ Zoroastrian Prayer for Peace

Jainist Prayer For Peace...

Peace and Universal Love is the essence

of the Gospel preached by all the

Enlightened Ones.

The Lord has preached that equanimity

is the Dharma.

Forgive do I creatures all,

and let all creatures forgive me.

Unto all have I amity, and unto none enmity.

Know that violence is the root cause of

all miseries in the world.

Violence, in fact, is the knot of bondage.

"Do not injure any living being."

This is the eternal, perennial, and unalterable

way of spiritual life.

A weapon howsoever powerful it may be,

can always be superseded by a superior one;

but no weapon can, however,

be superior to non-violence and love.

~ Jainist Prayer for Peace

 

 

 

Bahai' Prayer For Peace...

Be generous in prosperity,

and thankful in adversity.

Be fair in thy judgement,

and guarded in thy speech.

Be a lamp unto those who walk

in darkness, and a home

to the stranger.

Be eyes to the blind, and a guiding light

unto the feet of the erring.

Be a breath of life to the body of

humankind, a dew to the soil of

the human heart,

and a fruit upon the tree of humility.

~ Bahai' Prayer for Peace

 

 

 

 

Sikh Prayer For Peace...

God adjudges us according

to our deeds,

not the coat that we wear;

that truth is above everything,

but higher still is truthful living.

Know that we attaineth God when we loveth,

and only that victory endures

in consequences of which

no one is defeated.

~ Sikh Prayer for Peace

Jewish Prayer For Peace...

Come let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, that we may walk the paths of the most high. 

And we shall beat our swords into ploughshares, and our spears into pruning hooks. 

Nations shall not lift up sword against nation - neither shall they learn war any more. 

And none shall be afraid, for the mouth of the Lord of Hosts has spoken.

~ Jewish Prayer for Peace

 

 

 

Native American Prayer For Peace...

 O Great Spirit of our

Ancestors, I raise

my pipe to you.

To your messengers the four winds, and

to Mother Earth who provides

for your children.

Give us the wisdom to teach our children

to love, to respect, and to be kind to each

other so that they may grow

with peace in mind.

Let us learn to share all good things that

you provide for us on this Earth.

 ~ Native American Prayer for Peace

Muslim Prayer For Peace...

 

In the name of Allah,

the beneficent, the merciful.

Praise be to the Lord of the

Universe who has created us and

made us into tribes and nations,

That we may know each other, not that

we may despise each other.

If the enemy incline towards peace, do

thou also incline towards peace, and

trust God, for the Lord is the one that

heareth and knoweth all things.

And the servants of God,

Most Gracious are those who walk on

the Earth in humility, and when we

address them, we say "PEACE."

 ~Muslim Prayer for Peace

Shinto Prayer For Peace...

 

Although the people living across the ocean surrounding us, I believe, are all our brothers and sisters, why are there constant troubles in this world? 

Why do winds and waves rise in the ocean surrounding us? 

I only earnestly wish that the wind will soon puff away all the clouds which are hanging over the tops of the mountains.

 

~ Shinto Prayer for Peace

 

 

 

Blessed Are The Peacemakers...

Blessed are the Peacemakers, for they shall be known as the Children of God.

But I say to you that hear, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you. 

To those who strike you on the cheek offer the other also, and from those who take away your cloak, do not withhold your coat as well.

Give to everyone who begs from you, and of those who take away your goods, do not ask them again. 

And as you wish that others would to do you, do so to them.

~ Christian Prayer for Peace

Buddhist Prayer For Peace...

May all beings everywhere plagued with sufferings of body and mind quickly be freed from their illnesses.

May those frightened cease to be afraid and may those bound be free. 

May the powerless find power, and may people think of befriending one another.

May those who find themselves in trackless, fearful wildernesses - the children, the aged, the unprotected - be guarded by beneficent celestials, and may they quickly attain Buddhahood.

~ Buddhist Prayer for Peace

All I Want For Christmas...

O Lord God Almighty -  may there be peace in celestial regions.
May there be peace on earth.
May the waters be appeasing.
May herbs be wholesome, and may trees and plants bring peace to all.
May all beneficent beings bring peace to us.
May thy Vedic Law propagate peace all through the world.

May all things be a source of peace to us.
And may thy peace itself bestow peace on all.
And may that peace come to me also.

~Hindu Prayer for Peace 

May we all find deep compassion, love, joy and peace within ourselves, within our relationships and within the world...

If reconciliation and healing with self and others is what you wish for this year, may it be so...

May there be reconciliation and healing between humans, 

between humans and all sentient life,

between humans and our mother, Gaia, 

between humans and the Life Force...

And so it is...

Blessings Be
