Let Us Pray


 

Now I lay me down to sleep
What should I pray for as I weep

The old that need our patient care
The lost who need a guiding prayer

A women that needs a strong right arm
Infants who heal all with their charms

The men that fight themselves for right
Students who carry on that fight

Children that have nowhere to turn
Families who've lost all hope to earn

The "Great Spirit" needs help with his plan
To expel all the evil from this land

I feel that all humans need to blame
To confront this evil from whence it came

I must look at myself to voice my claims
because evil is inside all human frames
 
When man has learned to control his greed
Only then will the better man succeed
