A PRAYER

O my Lord Allah,

When I hymn Your praise,

May the trees kneel,

And may the streams sing.



Give me the power,

To make the mighty bow,

When I praise Your glory,

May the whole world glow.



Make my pen mightier,

Than the sharpest sword,

Increase me in my faith,

Don't let me falter.



You are my Guardian,

My Saviour, my Friend,

I want you by my side,

To the very end.

This is a prayer all writers would do well to recite. To desire their pen to be mightier than the sword is to write in the ink of truth.
