Graduation Prayer

Dear Lord,

As the St. Richard graduating class of 2012 moves onto their next phase of life, we ask you to bless and guide them on their journey, for we know the plans You have for them were wrought with your divine care.

Holy Spirit, lead them in all they do. Let them run at Your command, yet be still and know that You are God when trouble is close at hand.

Your word will be a lamp for them, a guide to light their way. A solid place to set their feet, a compass to not let them stray.

May they live a life to praise You, not for fortune, nor for fame. May everything they say and do, bring glory to your name.

Dear Lord, show them Your favor, may Your face ever shine upon them with peace and perfect rest.

Amen
