Poem
My Father Your Father Our Father-Prayer My guardian and protector, from the evils of deception I thrive in your presence, by learning from your correction The past present and future, you are the connection My life has purpose, when others see your reflection I lift my hands, to the “Ancient of days.” Allow me to walk, in the counsel of your ways. Accept my offering, as I give you praise. Let my tongue be honourable, in every phrase. I have strayed from the path, that you gave Without you, I’m destined for the grave To my desires, I’ve been a slave Transform my weakness, please make me brave. I am unworthy, I know it is true Nothing in this world, compares to you Seeing through your eyes, the world is new You are perfection, in all that you do. Some seek to find you, through the words of the Koran Others choose the Bible to learn of your plan My understanding is finite for I am just a man Help me to be humble, please reveal all you can Fulfill my desire, exchange bitter for sweet At the waters of baptism, we shall meet My direction each step, please guide my feet You give me breath, you make my heart beat. It is another beautiful poem in collaboration with Dear Richard. Thanks for his nice efforts in shaping this beautiful pray.
