Prayer for Parents # 3

O Almighty God,

you gave us the commandment

to honour our father and mother.

In your loving kindness

hear my prayer for my parents.

Give them long lives

and keep them well in body and spirit.

Bless their labours;

keep them always in your care.

Bless them generously for their loving care for me.

Grant that, through your grace,

I may always be their support

and comfort, and that,

after our life together on earth,

we may experience the joy together praising you forever.

Amen.
