A reconciliation prayer (Sedro)

Thou Who art love and art called love, and Who delighteth in this title more
than all other titles;

Thou Who giveth honor to those who hold to this love.

By Thy love for us, Thou offereth Thyself as an acceptable sacrifice and a
sweet fragrance.

By Thy crucifixion, Thou breakest down the barrier of enmity and,

By Thy blood, Thou hast reconciled the dwellers of heaven and earth and
hast removed the enmity from the middle and united them as one.

By the indivisible unity of Thy Godhead from eternity and Thy human nature
in time, Thou hast called all those who were far off and those who were
near, and thus Thou has joined them together with the concord of Thy divine
love.

By this same love, Thou hast counted them among the household of Thy
eternal kingdom and brought the whole world good tidings of peace and
tranquility. At Thy birth, the heavenly hosts proclaimed peace to the
shepherds. Thou gavest peace to the women, who went and announced Thy
glorious resurrection. In peace, Thou assureth Thy holy apostles of Thy
resurrection in the upper room where they gathered. When Thou wast
ascending to Thy Father, Thou gavest Thy peace to Thy disciples, saying to
them: “My peace I leave with you; not as the world giveth, do I give it to
you. This is my commandment that you should love another, just I have loved
you.” Keep this love entrusted to us, our Savior, and by it, confirm our
minds.

By Thy love, may we be bound together.
By Thy love, drive out from among us divisions and controversies.
By Thy love, make us keep Thy life-giving commandments.
By Thy love, hold afflictions and sufferings from us.
By Thy love, make us children of peace and tranquility.

By Thy peace, unite the shepherds and their flocks.
By Thy peace, cause priest to delight in their offerings.
By Thy peace, perfect Thy Church and her children.
By Thy peace and tranquility, guide and adorn Thy Church.
By Thy peace and tranquility, lead her congregations and make her children
glad.

In Thy tranquility, keep those who are near her.
In Thy peace, purify her deacons.
In Thy tranquility, unite her leaders.
In Thy peace, reconcile the wrathful.
In Thy tranquility, unite those that are divided.
In Thy peace, fill bitter souls with happiness.
In Thy tranquility, keep Thy flock.
In Thy peace, settle doubting minds.
In Thy tranquility, purify our thoughts.
In Thy peace, deliver us from merciless people in authority.
In Thy tranquility, adorn us in all Thy festivals.
In Thy peace, accept our fasting and our prayers.
In Thy tranquility, grant us mercy and forgiveness.
In Thy peace, loosen us from the bonds of wickedness.
In Thy tranquility, break us out of the yoke of the adversary.

May Thy peace be with us and may Thy tranquility reign among us. Bind our
minds with Thy Love and establish Thy loving-kindness in our hearts that we
may offer thanks to Thee, O Lord of tranquility, and to Thy Father, the
Giver of peace, and to Thy Holy Spirit, the Perfector of true love, now and
forever.

Amen
(from Order of Reconciliation on the First Day of the Great Fast)

May Christ guide and guard us all during this time of prayer, purification
and reconciliation.
