Oh dear Father, our prayer to you 1
And every single word is true 2
We need your help down here below 3
I really think that you should know 4
There's sickness, hate and war down here5
The world can't feel that you are near 6
As man we're week and tremble and shake 7
And hope someday soon that you will make 8
Your presence felt and your love will flow9
And all the doubter's here will know10
That this old world didn't come about 11
From a big bang theory without much clout12
A house that's built, no one would think 13
It's very existence came about in a wink 14
Or the metal pieces of a jumbo jet plane 15
Or the carriage’s of a commuter train 16
It should be known that for every creation 17
A creator is needed for it’s very formation 18
Yet with all of the beauty this world can display 19
Your people are somehow filled with dismay 20
So please God let everyone know you are there 21
I hope you will answer as this is our prayer.22

I really liked the flow, of this. It is a wonderful prayer, with a wonderful message it made me feel happy. Keep up the good work. -
A prayer into the abyss
Has the optimism of a child, only one spelling error (line 7 should spell as weak). Was this done in the style of a child? Resonantes to me like a sad little boy crying as the tanks roll past his bombed down house. A Gaza child, if you will, so very resonant now.
Good luck with the comp, but i think the unresponsivness of God is the only thing that really lets him get away with the mess that he has caused down here. -
another nice prayer... lots of hope in these words that God will find us worthy to make himself known to us. thanks for sharing this with us and thanks for entering this into my contest

Hi, God sent many people like you (and me) who are neutralizing the overall 'evil' effect of humans.
I think God wants us to solve our problem. (Which is not going to happen in near future...and far future too).
Very nice poem, Friend.
