O Master of the waking world,
Who hast the nations in Thy heart,
The heart that bled and broke to send
God's love to earth's remotest part:
Show us a-new in Calvary
The wondrous power that makes men free.
praying for peace and security in Nigeria on March 1st.

We hear the throb of surging life,
The clank of chains, the curse of greed,
The moan of pain, the futile cries,
Of superstition's cruel creed;
The people hunger for Thee, Lord;
The world is waiting for Thy Word.
Thy witness in the souls of men,
Thy Spirit's ceaseless, brooding power,
In lands, where shadows hide the light,
Await a new creative hour:
O mighty God, set us a flame
To show the glory of Thy name.
Amen.
Please pray for our brothers and sisters in the Lord
in the nation of Nigeria, who are daily facing horrific
persecution and death. Pray also, that despite the
forces of spiritual and human wickedness invading
that land, the life-changing message of the gospel,
of salvation in Jesus Christ alone, will prevail,
in the hearts and minds of the Nigerian people,
and all across the continent of Africa.
