A Prayer for the Start of Advent
We have entered the season
Of office parties and neon lights
A season of drunk drivers
And crowded shops
A season of immense wealth
and immense poverty
A season when many
will eat and drink to excess
and millions will starve
Many will try to cloud out their troubles
With narcotics sold on our city streets
Streets which people will roam
Cold, alone, and homeless
A season when many will die
at the hands of men at war
Come light of the world
Bring new light to this world
In its darkness and despair
Come hope of the world
come and touch
Sooth your peoples pain
Come to a world
brutally raped of love
Come light of the world
Bring Joy
Bring Peace
Bring Love
Amen
Sam King
