As we worship, bring the silence
in gracious peace ring down the day.
Stay the light that's stained with violence,
deliver calm, pass ill storms away.

Send to us your guileless servant,
pure of faith and stainless heart.
Confer to him a truce so verdant  
with joyous love and hope impart.

Stand guard against faults that rage
and spare less fortune from the cold.
Lift these hearts, fallen, fled with age
and never loose us from your hold.

Share with us your saving Grace
with harmony that men embrace.

I cannot help and do not want to help saying, 'Amen' after reading such a lifting and beautifully worded feel request that surely radiates ever upward and onward in prayer. I am touched and I relish it. Amen and Amen. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Totally enjoyed this upbeat, and optimistic poem. Good and best wishes for the Contest, Sir Charlie Smith. Many levels of meaning. Something original in every stanza, plus a rhyming final couplet; yet I feel Stanza @ is my fave (with "guileless servant.") shalom, shalom

Your tribute to guardian angels is an inspiration Charlie. I hope it wins a top placement. I wouldn't want to live my life without the help of the angels. A reverent prayer expressed so creatively! I loved it! ; )
