Evening Prayer – 31 May 2017
The sun has set and the Vesper Lights flicker and glow
As I watch the country I served for 26 years in uniform
My heart aches
I swore to protect and defend
The Constitution of the United States of America
Against all enemies, foreign and domestic
But I am also a citizen of this world
A world you created, Oh Lord
My heart breaks as I see so much hatred
I can’t imagine how your heart hurts, Lord
And so I lift my constant prayer to you
Dona Nobis Pacem et in Terra
Grant Us Peace on Earth
A wee prayer from the heart of your Padre…
