Lord,
you who look upon every being with kindness and love, teach us to see!
In every face, reveal to us the potential you see,
in every face, reveal to us your own face, and remind us that in serving our brothers and sisters,
it is you we serve.
Blessed be you, Lord, for keeping in us this loving gaze,
this hopeful gaze,
throughout our days
and until the day we meet you face to face in eternity.
