Happy Labor Day

Lord on this Labor Day,

we celebrate the work we do,

and we thank You for the blessing of our jobs.

We ask for those seeking employment that

You guide them in their search for work.

We ask for guidance when we are confused.

We ask for patience when working through conflicts.

We ask for strength to complete each day.

We ask for rest when we are weary.

We ask that You be with those whose faces

we might never see but who work tirelessly

each day for the good of us all.

'Lord, support us all day long until shadows lengthen,

evening comes, the busy world hushed, the fever of life

is over and our life's work is done.

Then, in Thy tender mercy, give us safe lodging, holy

rest and everlasting peace at your side for eternity.'

Amen
