LORD, We ask You for wise tongues and
hearts at peace, for they are life and healing to us.
We will meditate on pleasant words,
things that are true and noble and just and pure
and lovely and of good report, things that are
virtuous and praiseworthy.
With our mouths we will speak words of life
and wholeness, and give thanks to You for
our healings!
