LET US PRAY



Our father who art in heaven
Please watch over us your people
You had a perfect plan for mankind
But out of disobedience and selfishness

Man relationship, trust and love for You fell
How can we explain the killings and war
Prostitution, fornication and adultery
Stored in the barn of our very hearts

Today, we are suffering out of negligence
Perishing for lack of understand
Lust for sinful thoughts upon vanity
Living lives contradicted to Your words

Father, please help us overcome this trying times
You choose to create man in your own image
And breathe life into his lungs
Because You saw  his uniqueness

Forgive us our trespasses and deliver us from the evil in our lands
Provide our daily bread and protect our children from harms
We are foolish not to acknowledge our weaknesses and faults
 Reluctant to the purpose Christ was crucify on the cross

We blindly choose to follow our own path
A path that leads to destruction and condemnation
And trade our souls at the gates of hell
This has led to the extinction of  our generation

We are sorry for taking your patience for granted
Please send forth the holy spirit to comfort us
Let there be peace and love once again in our lands
And your grace rest upon man now and forevermore 

AMEN
