A prayer for peace
- I pray that I can be a cause for peace,
- and not a cause for war.
- That my arrogance and presumption,
- will trouble no one no more.
- That my house can atone for it's crimes,
- and learn the arts of peace.
- That my house can learn understanding,
- and cease preaching intolerance and hate.
- That I can learn forgiveness,
- and leave punishment to fate.
- That I will kill my fear and anger,
- and kill the desire to cause others pain.
- That my swords can be beaten to plowshares,
- and delivered next door again.
- That no one follow me,
- but learn to follow hisher own heart.
- That freindship and understanding,
- can hear make a fresh new start.
- That I not be a false peacemaker,
- making peace after starting a war.
