Home and Friends — Absent Friends (5)
O Heavenly Father, who hast bestowed upon us the comfort of earthly friends: Look in love upon those dear to us from whom we are separated. Protect them and keep them from all harm; prosper and bless them in all good things; suffer them never to be desolate or afraid, and let no shadow come between them and us to divide our hearts; but in thine own good time may we renew the fellowship of sight and hand; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
