Hear my feeble prayer.
In times past, You have heard our cries and come to our aid. You established this nation and protected us for the testimony we could have as "One Nation Under God." History told the story of Your grace and mercy on us.
The health and prosperity of this nation was not from our own hands. Our might did not bring us victory, but it was Your right hand, Your arm and the light of Your face. We prospered because of Your favor.
Through You, or foes were pushed away, through Your Name our assailants were ovecome. It was You, all along, who saved us from our adversaries and You put to shame those who hate us.
Thanks be to Your Name forever and ever.
Yet, now, by our own desires, we have been thruse aside and we are disgraced among the nations. We have run from our enemies and hide and grovel at their beck and call. We are like sheep to be eaten and scattered.
We are not worth a pittance and we do not give You the glory for all that is from Your hand. We have scorned You and now we are scorned. We are mocked by our neighbors because we have mocked You time and again.
We are disgraced. Shame covers us. Have we forgotten You. I have not fogotten. Others bow before Your throne. They have not forgotten You. Our hearts continue to turn towards You O God and we have not bent our hearts to foreign gods. You know.
Wak up, O God who brought us forth. Wake up and do not turn Your back on us forever. Again turn Your face towards us. We see the irreverence this land has for Youa dn Your Word. But You are a God of mercy. Have mercy on us once again.
Come and help us!
For the sake of Your grace!, redeem us!
Maranatha!
