Text: Day for Life 2006.

We thank you, Lord, for the Gift of Life.
Every human life is your gift to the world.
Each person is unique, with a task you have entrusted to them alone.
Help us always to promote the basic rights of all, and to recognise that we are all parts of One Body, dependent upon one another, and called to share a common life.

Amen.
