Orison

a pleiades poem

Our blessed Father, in whom we find our true worth.
Order the thinking of our leaders here on earth.
Occupy our nation in these upside-down days.
One and Only Redeemer, Your standard we raise
Off’ring up repentance for grace we can’t merit,
Obeying the calm, rousing voice of Your Spirit.
Oversee our great land, bring your crucial rebirth.
