A wonderful and uplifting prayer!

><center><b>My People</b>

><table><tr><td>Dearest Lord, I hear the cry of my
>people;
>Mine heart hurts overwhelmed, please save my people!
>
>Kneel they neath a yoke grim and deplorable;
>Please hear my pleas, Dear God, preserve my people!
>
>See their souls and spirits wounded horrible!
>Grant them release, Dear Lord, and heal my people!
>
>Crushed, their hearts lay neath despair unbearable;
>Dear God of life, grant hope unto my people!
>
>Lost they walk in pain dismal and terrible;
>To peace and safety, Lord, please guide my people!
>
>Weakened before countless acts unspeakable,
>They need your strength, dear God; embrace my people!
>
>Their dreams lay dead, dying and ineffable;
>Dear Lord of grace, bring promise to my people!
>
>Dwell they deep in folds of darkness peccable;
>God, shine your light effulgent on my people!
>
>Lord, Zahaar, your servant, prays amenable;
>Let end their timeless grief; redeem my
>people!</td></tr></table>
