The Deacon's Bench
All-powerful and ever-living God, when Abraham left his own land and departed from his own people, you kept him safe all through his journey. Protect us, who also are your servants: walk by our side to help us; be our companion and our strength on the road and our refuge in every adversity. Lead us, O Lord, so that we will reach our destination in safety and happily return to our homes.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
R. Amen.
638 Or:
May God bless you with every heavenly blessing and give you a safe journey; wherever life leads you, may you may find him there to protect you.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
R. Amen.
