A Prayer for Peace in Syria Prayer from Catholics Confront Global Poverty, a collaborative effort of USCCB and CRS

God of Compassion, Hear the cries of the people of Syria

Comfort those who suffer violence Console those who mourn the dead

Give strength to Syria’s neighbouring countries to welcome the refugees

Convert the hearts of those who have taken up arms

And protect those who are committed to peace

God of Hope, Inspire leaders to choose peace over violence and to seek reconciliation with their enemies

Inflame the Universal Church with compassion for the people of Syria

And give us hope for a future built on justice for all

We ask this through Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace and Light of the world. Amen
