Universal Worship Service
This is a simple non-sectarian, devotional service, open to all, highlighting the unity of religious ideals and is based upon the Sufi Message brought to the Western world in 1910 by Hazrat Inayat Khan.
We open each Universal Worship Service with a Prayer for Peace.
Prayer for Peace
Send Thy Peace, O Lord, which is perfect and everlasting, that our souls may radiate Peace.
Send Thy Peace, O Lord, that we may think, act, and speak harmoniously.
Send Thy Peace, O Lord, that we may be contented and thankful for Thy bountiful gifts.
Send Thy Peace, O Lord, that amidst our worldly strife we may enjoy Thy Bliss.
Send Thy Peace, O Lord, that we may endure all, tolerate all in the thought of Thy Grace and mercy.
Send Thy Peace, O Lord, that our lives may become a divine vision, and Thy Light all darkness may vanish.
Send Thy Peace, O Lord, our Father, and Mother, that we, Thy children on earth, may all unite in one Brotherhood.
AMEN
By Hazrat Inayat Khan, Founder of the Sufi Movement
