The Lineman's Prayer

Almighty God, creator of the earth, wind and rain,

protect us as we journey through the morning mist, the noontime sun, and the evening shadows.

Help us to always remember that the most powerful energy can light the sky

and run across wires that only time and experience can guide us to touch.

Teach us to trust in Your divine intervention

but prepare us for unnatural clashes that neither God nor man can control

Lead us into the darkest storm

and deliver us to serve those who depend on our skills.

Thank you, O God, for every blessing

and may You give us strength to reach for the stars.

Amen
