Prayer for Neighbors - Traditional

Lord, bless my neighbors.
I may not know them all,
but You know each one.
Watch over their homes,
protect their families,
and meet their needs.
Help me to be a good neighbor—
friendly, helpful, and kind.
May our community be a place
of mutual care and respect,
where we look out for one another
and build each other up.
Amen.
