Campers Prayer from Marianne: God of the hills, grant us Thy strength to go back into the cities without faltering, strength to do our daily task without tiring and with enthusiasm, strength to help our neighbors who have no hills to remember. God of the lake, grant us Thy peace and Thy restfulness, peace to bring into the world of hurry and confusion, restfulness to carry to the tired whom we shall meet every day. Content to do small things with a freedom from littleness, self-control for the unexpected emergency, and patience for the wearisome task, with deep depths within our souls to bear us through the crowded places. Grant us the hush of the nighttime when the pine trees are dark against the skyline, the humbleness of the hills who in their mightiness know it not, and the laughter of the sunny waves to brighten the cheerless spots of a long winter. God of the wilderness, with Thy pure winds from the northland, blow away our pettiness; with the harsher winds of winter, drive away our selfishness and hypocrisy; fill us with the breadth and depth and height of Thy wilderness. May we live out the truths which Thou has taught us, in every thought and word and deed. Amen~
