Almighty God, whose will is justice and harmony, break the chains of the oppressed and free those who labor under cruelty and indifference, that the people would sing together in unity and joy and praise you for your goodness towards all those who look to you, through Jesus our redeemer, who lives forever with you and the Holy Spirit in perfect joy, world without end. Amen.
‘For the yoke of their burden and the bar across their shoulders, the rod of their oppressor, you have broken as on the day of Midian.’ – Isaiah 9:4
