CREATOR of the universe, comfort the families whose sons and daughters, husbands and wives have been killed in … war. Guide our political leaders to be humble, discerning, and constantly aware of the personal sacrifices resulting from our policies. Help us to examine all our statements and actions and never to assume that our perspective or that of our nation, is beyond challenge. Amen.
