Help! A prayer.
Father,
Many things are troubling me.
I have friends in plight
A mother and uncle in distress
And sisters I cannot see.
My friends are lost
Hiding their pain
Find them father
send me the cost.
I'll hold their hand
When they need it
Help me support them
Help me understand.
My mother and uncle do their best.
Not giving in
But under pressure
They're strong but demonstrably stressed
I'll hold their hand
When they needs it
Help me support them
Help me understand.
My sisters ignored
Held captive
Held quiet
Their removals wrongly ordered.
I'll hold their hand
When they need it
Help me support them
Help me understand.
I pray for them
Not for myself
I have you if I need you
That's all I need to know to continue righting.
Bless them as you have me?
Amen.
