Prayer For Fulfillment Of The Universal Commandment
God of light
Ruling over the blind
Do not let us call you
God of darkness
Do not let us blasphemy
Do not let us steal our truth
Do not let us kill for strength
Do not let us sell our souls for love
or call a mob a civilization
or worship the greatest bully
who sends false prophets and preachers
to try to blackmail us through our sins
God of light
illuminate our hearts
and make them see
lest we rip and tear
every living thing with our teeth
God of light
Healer of the blind
spark a soft glow of faith in You
in our hearts to warm our minds
and to spread into our eyes
We look on our idols and empires
and see nothing of our blind dreams
Only the works of Your hands are before us
Steer our tongues to pilot our ship
away from the cliffs of anger
and the rocks of deceit and arrogance
Every tongue gives voice to Your name
Our lips love to speak Your truth
Turn all our work of learning into learning love
and all our violence into healing
Our hands and feet serve every soul
Our prayers nurse heaven and earth
Transform our sins
into simple childish errors
and transform our errors
into paths of instruction in righteousness
We allow the wise to judge us
Those with understanding follow the child
Our words were a cancer of immorality
make them songs of faith in every heart
We tore the limbs off of every living thing
to satisfy our hunger
Satisfy our hunger with mercy
We thirst for the lovingkindness of Your word
Cradle us as newborns in Your arms
