A Prayer Of Perfection Poem by sylvia spencer

A Prayer Of Perfection

Rating: 5.0


Enable us to have the wisdom
that comes with shaping the mind.
Equip us with the truth because it
will help shape our conscience.
Encourage us to have the vision
so that we can help in the future.
Power us with love, make us gentle
and kind for this may help to shape the world.
Fulfil our speech with wonderful words, so that
we can share them with others of less fortune.
Enable us to be happy and have pleasures at hand
for this may banish greed and selfishness.
Equip us with a kind heart so to help find forgiveness
because this is hard to find, when wrong has taken over.
Engulf us with strength, to fight the battle cry
so we can conquer torment, depression and stress.
Encourage us to walk down your holy path,
for here we will find guidance, security and love.
Enrol us in your house as good Christian People
for it is here we will find joyfulness and friendship.
Enrich us with the voice to sing in Holy Praise,
for our Lord God who has given us 'Perfection!

This is a beautiful prayer/poem, I will still think of myself as a lowly sort, far from perfect in any way But I do pray for love and light and true compassion in the world, Your prayer tells much of the love and kindness in the world today, Love Duncan x
