Prayer for Seniors

Bless, O God, our senior citizens. Let them know how deeply we value the contributions they have made. Bless those who have lived long, sacrificed much and worked hard so that younger generations may enjoy a quality of life that our seniors may not have had. Work among them Lord, inspiring them to leave a legacy of faith and prayer for all generations that remain after them. And may they remain faithful to You throughout their lives. Amen.
