Prayer for Safety
Safe Journey Prayer
Lord of all creation,
Master of the powerful elements,
Keeper of time and space
And King of life on Earth.
You promise to journey with us.
As we travel at speed you are mighty to keep us safe.
At all times, you are before us and behind us, to each side and beneath.
Fill our hearts with peace, inspire us with new sights and sounds.
You long to journey with us,
To be a part of our lives.
We welcome you Lord Jesus into our travels.
Amen.

Lord God,
Thank you that you are with our family. Whether we are together or apart, in good times or bad, we know that you will provide and care for us. So we come and shelter here beneath your love.

Today we rest secure in your everlasting love.
In the name of Christ our Lord.
