Dear Lord,
Please cover our families with Your protection and peace.
Keep our homes standing firm and our hearts steadfast.
Bless every rescuer, healer, and volunteer with strength and courage.
May unity and compassion rise stronger than the shaking ground.
Guide us, Lord, and let Your mercy bring calm to our nation.
Amen.
