[Unison] Lord, You have searched us and found us wanting. You have known our inmost thoughts and called us to better things. You have set us in this world to love and serve You by loving and serving one another, to worship You by tending to those most vulnerable among us. When we fail, do not abandon us. When we go astray, call us back home. Search us O God, and know our hearts. Test us and know our thoughts. Root out the wicked ways in us, and lead us in the way everlasting. Amen.
