Strengthen Us The Weak To Cherish for we were naked too, and homeless, stereotyped, accused and we are the poor, the uneducated, the exploited, the sick give us strong compassion, resources mental and economic that open prison bars with love, and comfort well the abused. Give Us Vision Less We Perish to know the present and where its coming from, and to know where we are going, and why we have chosen the path we take father guide us to best choices, and not the easy ones to make and wealth is multiplied may our vision not hide you in the flow. Knowledge Send Us Heavenly Father, from the person in the hovel, fromm the man in the street, and from the child who no experience blinds the alternative eye from the student, and the master, from angels through the sky and your holy spirit, o god give us back bones worthy to stand.
