A prayer for Afghanistan

Poem By Reginold Jacob, India

Father of the fatherless,

Defense of the weak,

Extend your hand, Lord,

Protection for thy people I seek.

I don't know how will you do it,

I simply don't know how,

I want your people protected,

You know better and how.

People are dying in fear,

People are afraid to the core,

Hold on to the helm of faith,

Hold your peace, hold on.
