00:00Dear God, we come to you today with hearts full of hope and eyes full of tears.
00:06Our beloved Philippines, a land of beauty and resilience, often faces the wrath of nature's fury.
00:12We humbly ask for your divine protection.
00:16Our islands, scattered like pearls across the sea, are vulnerable to the forces beyond our control.
00:23Typhoons rage, earthquakes tremble, and floods inundate.
00:28We pray for your mercy, for your sheltering hand to shield us from harm.
00:33In times of uncertainty and fear, we turn to you, our refuge and our strength.
00:38Hear our prayer, O Lord, and grant us peace in the midst of the storm.
00:42You are the creator of the mountains and the seas, the architect of this beautiful archipelago.
00:48You have woven together a tapestry of islands, each one unique and precious.
00:54We ask you to be the guardian of our land, to protect its shores and its people.
01:00From the towering peaks of the Cordilleras to the vibrant coral reefs beneath the waves,
01:06we are surrounded by your wonders.
01:09We acknowledge your power and your grace, and we implore you to keep us safe.
01:14We know that you are a God who hears the cries of your children.
01:18We trust in your love and your faithfulness to see us through any challenge.
01:22When the earth trembles and the skies darken with ash, be our refuge, Lord.
01:27Shield us from the fiery dangers that threaten our homes and our lives.
01:31Protect our families and communities from the possible devastating effects of the Tyal Volcano.
01:38Give us the strength and the resources to prepare for what may come ahead.
01:44Guide the hands of our volcanologists and disaster relief workers,
01:48that they may be instruments of your protection.
01:52We know that you do not always stop the eruption, but you promise to calm your children.
01:58Grant us peace in the midst of uncertainty, and hope in the face of adversity.
02:03The Filipino spirit is known for its resilience, its ability to rise above challenges,
02:08and face adversity with courage.
02:11But even the strongest hearts can be weary.
02:14We ask for your protection to shield us, your love to heal us.
02:19Give our people the strength to stay safe during every outbreak,
02:23including the recent monkeypox cases, the compassion to care for one another,
02:28and the faith to believe in a healthier tomorrow.
02:31Let us not be defined by the illnesses we face, such as the African swine flu affecting our pigs,
02:38but by the strength we find in you.
02:41Remind us that we are not alone in our struggles.
02:44You are always with us, carrying us through the darkest of times.
02:48We pray for our leaders, those tasked with the responsibility of guiding our nation.
02:54Grant them wisdom to make sound decisions, courage to act justly,
02:59and compassion to serve the needs of all people.
03:02May they be guided by your principles of justice, integrity, and love.
03:08Help them to lead with humility and understanding, seeking the well-being of all Filipinos.
03:16May their actions reflect your love, and their leadership inspire unity and hope among our people.
03:22In times of hardship, the true spirit of the Filipino shines through.
03:26We come together as one, offering a helping hand to those in need.
03:31Lord, we ask for your continued blessing on our spirit of unity and compassion.
03:36May we always be our brother's keeper, sharing what we have with those who have lost everything.
03:42Let us be instruments of your love, offering comfort, support, and hope to those who are hurting.
03:50Remind us that even small acts of kindness can make a big difference in the lives of others.
03:55Despite our challenges, we are grateful for the countless blessings you have given our nation.
04:00We thank you for the beauty of our land, the resilience of our people,
04:05and the unwavering hope that resides in our hearts.
