Hear Our Prayer

Oh raindrops falling
from the sky,

 

Oh tears streaming
From our eyes,

 

Hear our plea,
Hear our need,

 

Come very softly,
Now.

 

In this world of wonders,
In this world of ponders,

 

We come forth,
With a plea,

 

Hear our prayers please.

 

In this day of sadness,
In this realm if madness,

 

We come forth,
With a plea,

 

Hear our prayers please,
Please.

 

We won't hold our breath and wait,
We will fight and pray,
We will win.

 

We have fought many wars,
We have broken many bones,

 

We come forth,
With a plea,

 

Hear our prayers please... Please.

Author's Note

I wrote these lyrics to Yuki Kajiura's song 'Hear Our Prayer' from the Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles OST, so the lyrics are mine, the music is not.

[Coyote Poetry]

The poem is beautiful and powerful. I try to pray for peace. I try to pray for food and a warm bed for all people in this world. Prayers are necessary to change this world. We also need strong leaders with wisdom and common sense. Love and kindness can break down walls of hatred. Rachel Corrie is one of my heroes. She was a life shield for people who had no-one. She was killed for standing for the weak and the suffering. There are Angel with us. We need more. A excellent poem. Made me think.
