This quilt is made in honor of all our troops
A Prayer For Peace
Dear Lord, I pray that we many find,
A path to peace in troubled times;
A road to friendship, love and care,
With peace prevailing everywhere.
In worldwide times of terror and fear,
What hope have we, of family cheer;
Can we rejoice and sing with glee
In the face of worldwide enmity!
A wounded world filled with dead,
Mighty nations torn to shreds-
Please bless those, Lord, with loved ones lost,
Can broken hearts repay the cost!
The wheels of time have spun with strife,
And utter waste of human life-
Can we extract ourselves once more,
From the folly of these endless wars!
Oh, Lord, please place thy guiding hand
Of righteousness upon our land-
And set our many peoples free,
That, with faith, we will meet eternity.
