Here is the full poem:

A Prayer to GOD

God please take away
All my sorrow,
I hope and pray
For a better tomorrow
I went astray
And feel empty and hollow
But in your way
I want to follow�.

God, please hear my cry
Deep at night
So hard I try and I try
to keep searching for the light.
Please, tell me why
I have to go through this plight.
I won�t deny-
I need you to be my Guide
And teach me how to fly
Like a bird in the sky
Free and happy in her flight.

I have my hopes high
That the future will be bright.
So, please, don�t lie,
Tell me that everything will be alright
With you by my side!

That I don�t have to hide
From the demons in the dark
That with you I can abide
In Noah�s Ark,
Like a butterfly
Or a skylark-
Safe from the tide
Safe from the flood,
Because you bring the light
To this fallen world
Stained with Jesus� blood.

Jesus of Nazareth
Who once said :
�I�m the way, the truth and the everlasting life!�
He was a prophet
Before his own time.
He was Godsend
But he had to die
On the cross like a true martyr,
For our sins to be forgiven
He was god�s son,
He was One with The Father,
Miracle powers he was given.
He raised from the dead,
that�s what they said,
To everlasting life
With his Father in the heavens.
Jesus can end the earthly strife
And win the fight with the demons.

Jesus, in You I put my trust
To set me free me from the bondage
To anger, jealousy and lust
And to guide me in my earthly voyage!

Upon my path shine your light
Bring me joy and true delight,
Turn what�s wrong- right,
Make my future happy and bright!

Give me strength to go on
Give me will power to move on
Give me wisdom to know
When I find true love
And to hold on
To it and keep it aflame
Let me succeed at this love game!
Help me put an end to blame,
Which is so unhealthy and lame.

Bring me fortune and good luck,
Don�t let me be a lame duck.
Bring me opportunities and fluke
Flowing to me in a constant brook.
Bring me happiness times ten,
Let me find the perfect man.

Amen!

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
