Air or DespAIR?

"Where there is despair, [let me sow] hope." - Prayer of St Francis

Oh God, there is so much despair in the world.
Desp-AIR, taking the wind out of our sails, the bounce from our steps,
The rhythm from our souls.
Airless we gasp for something to breath ...
Let us breath in hope, Oh God of hope.
Let us, then, breathe it out into the world where we all ...
Share the air!
And out of despair, repair our own resolve to live ...
One more day,
And then another and another until ...
You take away our breath and ...
Breathless, we stand before you.
This is our hope eternal,
Eternal God.
Amen.
