Dionysos, Lord of Mercy,
you who know exile, wandering, and rejection,
look upon those who suffer without shelter.
See those who lie awake through cold nights,
those who hunger when others feast,
those who are ignored, mocked, or forgotten.
See those burdened by illness,
grief, loneliness, addiction, and despair.
Where their bodies ache, bring relief.
Where their spirits are broken, bring comfort.
Where they have lost hope, kindle the flame of courage.
Stand beside those who endure rain without a roof,
Sun without shelter,
and hardship without a helping hand.
Guard them from violence, exploitation,
and all who would take advantage of their vulnerability.
Dionysos, friend of the downtrodden,
let no suffering escape your notice.
Send compassionate hearts to aid them,
safe places to receive them,
and better days to restore them.
May those who are cast aside be remembered,
those who are weary find rest,
and those who wander find a home.
In your kindness, hear their cries and bring them peace.
