You are home to the exile

You are home to the exile
touch to the frozen
daylight to the prisoner
authority to the silent
anger to the helpless
laughter to the weary
direction to the joyful:
come, our God, come.

a prayer by Janet Morley
from All Desires Known:
Inclusive Prayers for Worship and Meditation
expanded edition (1992)
