Holy One, We call out to You in a moment of deep distress, an eruption of violence and hatred in the heart of our nation. | |
Send Your Spirit among us, sheltering our sisters and brothers, elected leaders, emergency responders, police and law enforcement from all harm. | |
Place in our hearts a commitment to remember the horror of today’s assault on our government. | |
Dear God, bless the United States of America with healing, with health, and with peace. Amen. |
A prayer for America on the day upon which right-wing militias carried out a failed insurrection upon the representative democratic institution of the United States Congress at the behest of then “president” Donald Trump, his enablers and allies on 6 January 2021. This prayer was first published by Rabbi Menachem Creditor on his Facebook page and shared via the Open Siddur Project discussion group on Facebook. –Aharon Varady

The Open Siddur Project is a volunteer-driven, non-profit, non-denominational, non-prescriptive, gratis & libre Open Access archive of contemplative praxes, liturgical readings, and Jewish prayer literature (historic and contemporary, familiar and obscure) composed in every era, region, and language Jews have ever prayed. Our goal is to provide a platform for sharing open-source resources, tools, and content for individuals and communities crafting their own prayerbook (siddur). Through this we hope to empower personal autonomy, preserve customs, and foster creativity in religious culture. If you like what you've found here, please help keep our project alive and online with your financial contribution.
ויהי נעם אדני אלהינו עלינו ומעשה ידינו כוננה עלינו ומעשה ידינו כוננהו "May the pleasantness of אדֹני our elo’ah be upon us; may our handiwork be established for us — our handiwork, may it be established." –Psalms 90:17
