Father, we do not cease praying for Your people
As Epaphras once wrestled before You
Grant us the Spirit of wisdom and revelation
To know Christ as He truly is
Illuminate the eyes of our hearts
That we may behold Your glory in this hidden place
Strengthen what is weak within us
According to the riches of Your power
Root us in the depths of Your love
Until we comprehend what cannot be measured
Let Your love overflow in truth and discernment
Sanctify us completely — spirit, soul and body
Until we stand blameless in Your sight
Make us one, Father, as You are one with the Son
Let Your glory rest upon Your church again
Reveal Your Son in us
That the world may know the love You have for Him
This is our prayer, this is our labor
That Christ may be formed in us
Open doors for Your word in darkened streets
Awaken hearts that hunger for what is real
Produce fruit that remains
And establish us in patient endurance
Give us the heart of Epaphras
To wrestle in the secret place
That Your will may be fulfilled in Your people
Come, Holy Spirit
Dwell among us
Conform us to the image of Your Son
Burn away what is not of You
Until only what is holy remains
Make us one
Reveal Your Son in us
Let Your glory rest upon Your church again
Until He comes
