What can I do, said I to the Lord
thats special for you today
and the voice came back so strong and sweet
get down on your knees and pray
Pray for peace in all of the world
and pray for the sins of your soul
pray for all suffering people and things
and make that your ultimate goal
But I pray every day, said I to the Lord
I pray for my family and my friends
then the answer came back so soft and low
bow down and pray again
Pray for the rain and pray for the sun
and the light of the sparkling stars
pray for all tall trees and for family love
and the sweet music of old guitars
Pray for the flowers that grow in the field
and small pebbled babbling streams
and store them away for another day
for they are the most precious of things
Pray for the special love of a friend
or a soulmate so good and so true
pray for the world, for it's a trifle sad
and it might be made better by you
And then all my arguiements were put into place
my worries all answered and done
said I to the Lord, how awesome you are
and you are the most holy one
Then He said, Oh my child, just listen to me
and never ever be afraid
so I rested my case and said no more
and got down on my knees and prayed
Very Nice
Very nice and very sweet. A good lesson to those who feels they pray "enough" because they ask for prosperity and good fortune for their loved ones. Heck even i'm guilty of it sometimes. I enoyed this poem very much.
