“We Cry Out” – An Original Prayer
From the depths of our hearts, O God
We cry out.
We repent.
From the depths of our hearts, O God
We cry out
For peace.
From the depths of our hearts, O God
We cry out
For mercy.
From the depths of our hearts, O God
We cry out
For justice.
From the depths of our hearts, O God
We cry out:
“No more.”
From the depths of our hearts, O God
We cry out:
“Ceasefire Now!”
Amen.
