Comfort in the midst of Turmoil

What's a way to pray in the midst of the violence we've seen in the past few weeks. There's a great prayer in the Book of Common Prayer that can help us right now.

Text of the prayer:
O God, you made us in your own image, and you have redeemed
us through your Son Jesus Christ: Look with compassion on the
whole human family; take away the arrogance and hatred which
infect our hearts; break down the walls that separate us; unite us
in bonds of love; and work through our struggle and confusion
to accomplish your purposes on earth; that, in your good time,
all nations and races may serve you in harmony around your
heavenly throne; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
