A PRAYER FOR FRIENDS
A PRAYER FOR OUR FRIENDS O, Omnipotent Architect Of The Universe We bring our humble friends to thee; Be with them on the stormy deep, Be with them in the silent hour By land or sea , awake or asleep. Be their Helper, Strength and Tower. Maintain them, O God of Right, , Through their earthly strife; Each holding forth the Word of Life, Be their Light to brighten future days, Let then not falter nor fail, Though the rocky paths be uneven. Stand up, Brethren- speak with cheerful voice, We bid you fight for a blessed dawn; Where be no room for despair. And all hopes will be leaven; Go-- win the country of your choice Of Truth and Liberty and Heaven, Last edited by cousinsoren 09-01-2010 at 11:13:51 AM |
The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.
Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
