Prayers/ HYMNS
ASSEMBLY PRAYER
You created this beautiful world,
and made human beings lord of all creation.
Today in our selfishness,
our pride, our greed,
and our wanton way of life,
we have brought discord, violence
and war into our dear land
O merciful Father,
heal our wounded hearts and minds,
pour the balm of your love and peace
into our troubled land,
and bring once more
the fragrance of fresh hope,
trust and harmony
among us-your broken people
so that soon from every heart may echo
the praise and glory of your Name.
Amen.
PRAYER BEFORE CLASS AND EXAMINATION

Help us to recall what we have studied.
