Our Heart in Heaven

Our Father who art in heaven, in our hopes, and in our hearts.
Hallowed be thy name on the lips of negotiators of peace.
Thy kingdom come, to India and Pakistan, to Iran and Iraq, and across the face of our troubled earth.
Thy will be done, in the hearts of children, in the conscience of men in-powered by others trust, and in our daily society as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread to feed our children with the nourishment of knowledge.
Forgive us our trespasses, for we must trespass gang turf or loose our children to indignity.
Grant us the strength to forgive those who trespass against us. Let us reveal a reflection of our compassion for mankind.
 Fill our souls with the understanding that leads us not into temptation or earthly destruction.
Deliver us from evil, from oppression, from the lack of peace that fills our daily lives, and from ourselves.
For thine is the kingdom, where we are safe from ourselves, where our wisdom is revealed as not.
You have the power, as only your wisdom grants and
the glory that warms our souls with your eminent light.
These truths you have always shared so deep in our hearts shall be there forever and ever…
Ah Mankind
