May We Forgive

May we forgive
as we have been forgiven;
may we clean the slates
as our slates have been wiped clean,
so we can live together in peace,
in peace with each other
and in peace with our God.

My we forgive our debtors,
may we smooth over the rough patches between us,
may we draw near to one another
as God has drawn near to us,

and may we live there together
in the blessing of his presence.

Amen.
