My God Almighty high up above
Please hear my prayer for peace, protection and love.

Although in my life you know I have sinned
You also know where I am going
Where I am , and where I've been.

For I pray to you Lord, not only in my sorrows
Nor only when I am in pain
But even in times of peace and joy
My prayers are never in vain.


I know that you love me, for I am your child
And you have never turned me away
Not even when I have stumbled
Or have clearly lost my way.


I ask you Lord to see me through this world so very cold
And I ask that you protect not only the Saints
But the weak, poor, young and the old.

Protect the defenseless babies, who are left crying in the night
Abandoned, hungry and cold
Screaming out to you with all their might.


Protect the innocent children, who are left crying deep inside
From eternal wounds that will never heal
No matter how hard they try.

Give peace and love to these children Lord, for they never had a chance
Against the overwhelming evil in this world
Please give them reasons to sing and dance.

Please Lord protect the old, for they have served their time
And now they are weak and very tired,
And some have not even a dime.

Protect the poor from disease, from hunger and devastation
Protect the ones who are left to perish
Those ignored by wealthy nations.

Protect the men, women and children
Who are left wandering in the street
Facing not only the danger of illness
But of crimes against them, and having nothing to eat.



Bless them with your warmth my Lord
When they are facing the coldest days
Please guide your loving angels to keep them
Safe and warm wherever they stay.


Protect the defenseless creatures, slaughtered for profit and gain
Hear their cries to you my Lord,
For they cry to you in agony, and in pain.

They are the ones of other nations, who share this web of life
Who are surely deserving of your love
And eternal light.

I ask these things of you my Lord
For only you and I surely know
Of the things that are so troubling
This pained and tired soul.

You are my silent witness, to the things my eyes have seen
For You have walked with me on this long, winding road
And everywhere in between.

Thank you Lord for hearing my prayers as I know you always will
For I know that you will love me always
I am forever your child, Camille.

How discouraging to see so many views on this poem, and not one comment, whether good or bad. Truly disappointing.

This was done very well. You can see how much you love God by putting your complete faith in Him. I even consider this to be inspiring, to others who do not pray as much but still have faith. Well done.

I agree with the last comment,and for me it even reads like a proper prayer or even a hyme that i could hear a choir singing.
But lets agree to disagree about God being your` Silent Witness`...for i
Can
Clearly
Hear
Here
Gods
Voice
Via
Your
Voice
And i would consider that many `Silent Views` as a Result and an almost Deafening& ReSounding...`Silent Witness`! ; )
