My Silent Prayer
Dear glorious and gentle lord, only to you I pray
I come to you for many reasons, on this beautiful day
I pray that the war in Iraq ends
and brings my sister back to family and friends
Not just my sister but plenty of others
cause there are many people losing sisters and brothers
I pray that the homeless will find shelter and food
and that the people that see them would stop acting so rude
For people to give a little is all that they ask
Yet people act like that's a really hard task
I pray that woman will stop getting abortions
or at least that the amount will reduce in large portions
If they don't want the babes than they should use protection
That would decrease abortions and the chance of a sexual infection
I pray you'll touch my heart lord on every layer
and that's how I'll end my silent prayer....
