Prayer For America

Prayer For America
By Curtis Johnson

May your sons and daughters be mature,
Strong, and well positioned for success

May you and all you possess be always productive;
And may the fruits of your endeavors be evident

May you always be secure and free; and may there
Be no distressful cries of pain from your streets

May you be the people upon whom such blessings fall
And may you always acknowledge God as Lord of all

Cj01262015( This prayer poem was inspired by Psalm 144:12-15
                         NRSV)
