Prayer for Social Justice

Almighty and eternal God, may your grace enkindle in all person a love of the unfortunate people whom poverty and misery reduce to a condition of life unworthy of human beings. Arouse in the hearts of those who call you Father a hunger and thirst for social justice and for fraternal charity in deeds and in truth. Grant, O Lord, peace in our days, peace to souls, peace to our community and peace among nations---

Pope Pius XII

Lord, Open Our Eyes

Lord, open our eyes,
That we may see you in
our brothers and sisters.
Lord, open our ears,
That we may hear the cries
of the hungry, the cold,
the frightened, the oppressed.
Lord, open our hearts,
That we may love each other
as you love us.
Renew in us your spirit
Lord, free us and make us one.

Mother Teresa
