Source of All Life and Light,
Across vast lands and distant shores, our hearts lift in hope,
Not gathered in one place, yet bound by a shared vision—
A world where peace guides every step,
Where justice and compassion touch every life.

On this United Nations Day, we pray for the courage of leaders,
That they may choose understanding over division,
Kindness over conflict, and healing over harm.
May they find the strength to protect the vulnerable,
To lift up the weary, and to honor the dignity of every soul.

Help us all to see beyond borders drawn on maps,
To recognize our neighbors not by distance, but by humanity,
To know that every culture, language, and story
Is a vibrant thread in the fabric of our shared existence.

Grant us wisdom to act with purpose,
Faith to believe in the goodness of others,
And resolve to work tirelessly for a future
Where every child feels safe, every family has enough,
And every person can walk in freedom and peace.

May we honor the beautiful diversity of this world You have created,
Seeing in each face the light that connects us all.
Together, may we build a world worthy of Your vision,
A world where Your boundless love flows freely,
Lighting the way toward unity and lasting peace.
