UNIVERSAL PRAYER

O Great Spirit Whose voice I hear in the winds

Whose breath gives life to the world

HEAR ME.

I come to You as one of your many children

I am small and weak

I need your strength and wisdom.

May I walk in beauty. 

Make my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset.

Make my hands respect the things that You have made 

And my ears sharp to hear Your voice.

Make me wise so that I may know

The things that You have taught your children.

The lessons that You have hidden in every leaf and rock

And make me strong 

Not to be superior to my Brothers

But, to be able to fight my greatest enemy,

MYSELF

Make me ever ready to come to You with straight eyes

So that when life fades,

My spirit will come to You

Without shame.
