God, I'm saying a prayer
for those in pain,
for those who grieve
and those in chains.
I'm asking for mercy
for the innocents who've
died by the scores
and for those far away from home,
fighting a war.
Please help the homeless
whose beds are made of stone,
those out of work,
and those who are alone.
Ease the suffering of
the victims
that no one can hear,
the battered wives and children
who're drowning in tears.
Wrap your loving arms around
the aged, ill, and meek.
Give strength and hope
to the suffering and we
