Written many years ago by a slightly more altruistic man who still believes to this day in the power and theology written about then
Prayer
Great God of Love, without you I am nothing
Without you I do not even cast a shadow
You are my substance my form
I exist only in you
Guard me against the paralysis of my fears
Grant me the strength to live with the consequences of my actions
May I always act for those who cannot
To win fairness where none is present
May I see you in everyone I encounter
Feel your presence in my adversaries
Act in your name in support those who have nothing
Celebrate your greatness with my every breath
Thank you for my strength, my imagination and my innovation
I will use these gifts to keep your light gleaming
In a darkening world
Thank you for my fear and frailty.
They define my extents that I may surpass them
May I find peace in the struggle of living
Knowing that the struggle is good and the fight worthwhile
If Fairness Dignity and Love are the process and the goals
