A prayer for the age, for
our time
That the world would be at
peace
that no one would be without
water
that none would know hunger
oppression, or struggle
starvation forgotten
Praying on this day
for a change to come about
all the world’s people
acting as one, united
to offer their abundance
giving from the heart
That none would know hunger
each of us doing our part
that sharing would become
common
not hording our gifts, our
treasure stored up
in ever larger silos, rotten
that the world would be
guided
by compassion, by love
