    Prayer for Safety In Hurricane Season

    O God, Master of this passing world,
    hear the humble voices of your children.
    The Sea of Galilee obeyed Your order
    and returned to its former quietude.

    You are still the Master of land and sea.
    We live in the shadow of a danger over which we have no control:
    the Gulf, like a provoked and angry giant,
    can awake from its seeming lethargy,
    overstep its conventional boundaries,
    invade our land, and spread chaos and disaster.

    During this hurricane season we turn to You, O loving Father.
    Spare us from past tragedies whose memories are still so vivid
    and whose wounds seem to refuse to heal with passing of time.

    O Virgin, Star of the Sea, Our beloved Mother, we ask you
    to plead with your Son on our behalf,
    so that spared from the calamities common to this area
    and animated with a true spirit of gratitude,
    we will walk in the footsteps of your Divine Son
    to reach the heavenly Jerusalem,
    where a storm-less eternity awaits us. Amen.
