We yearn, O Christ, for wholeness and for your healing touch;

in hope and expectation a-wait your gracious Word.

We long to have companions who travel by our side,

Strong friends to call and an-swer with whom we are allied;

As we lift up each o----ther when struggles lay us low,

community develops; our faith and caring grow.
