Poems of Peace and War

OH POWERFUL BUT PEACEFUL WEAPON. PRAYER.

Reading edition

The sword that conquered Greece and Rome, And brought to Christ’s most sacred feet, The pagan of the ancient world, Was pray’r, yes pray’r with wings so fleet. So raise your hearts, heav’n storm with prayer, In supplication bend the knee, Be not afraid, do not despair, For pray’r is heaven’s golden key. While war is waged relentlessly, For honor, justice, love to all, Prayer’s influence for world wide peace, Through divine justice cannot fall.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
