1. A prayer for children living in poverty to flourish
Based on Psalm 107:9 and Hosea 11:4.

2. Ever loving God, if you would lead a nation with cords of human kindness, and bands of love, how much more do you long to lead each little one living in poverty to a new and spacious life of plenty?

3. Lead them now ever loving God - to new circumstances we pray; where needs can be expressed – and met. Where fear and stigma fall away - and equality comes. And where childhood feels safe again.

4. Lead us, ever loving God - to pray and live in a new way which looks beyond the surface, and gives beyond our comfort zone, until each child’s childhood is safe again.
