Gracious Father, God of mercy,
Grant your children rest tonight;
Grant that their hearts would be trusting,
Knowing you will do what's right.
Grant them wisdom in decisions
That they're called upon to make;
Grant them fortitude to press on
When naysayers they must face.
Grant them courage in these hours
When their hearts could fail for fear,
Grant that they would cry out to You,
Confident that You will hear.
Gracious Father, God of mercy,
Reach forth with your mighty pow'r,
Healing bring to heart and body,
Be their strong and mighty tower.
In the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Amen.

Congratulations, you have an uncanny habit of hitting the nail on the head, so to speak.
And people think that Calvinists and fatalists are the same thing. It's just crazy! (that is...I was thinking about the line "grant them wisdom in decisions" which sure sounds like an invasion of free-will to me! But it seems so harmless and sensible when you put it like that).
