Prayer In Time of Danger

A deeply rooted beech tree sheltering ferns on a rocky hillside during passing rain.
In uncertainty, prayer gives voice to our need for help and steadiness.

O God, Who knowest us to be set in the midst of such great perils, that, by reason of the weakness of our nature, we cannot stand upright, grant us such health of mind and body, that those evils which we suffer for our sins we may overcome through Thine assistance. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
