Anglican Youth Yeah Collect

God of our journey,

You call us to travel to a new place.

When storms threaten,

May we trust in your grace.

When peace reigns,

May we speak in your praise.

Unite us, both young and old,

That our light might so shine,

And bring glory to you

In your holy and precious name we pray,

Amen.
