Love Poem: Save Us Our Lord

Save Us Our Lord

Oh my lord,
When I see people:
Beheading other people
Selling women to slavery
Executing men for being different
Destroying your places of worship
Obliterating civilizations
Forbidding knowledge and
Subjecting Thy creation to terror, 
There is only one thing for me to do:
To Thee to pray

Thus

My eyes to Thee I turn in despair         
For 
To supplicate Thee, oh Lord, 
To save us from all those, around the world, who 
Believe to be Thy exclusive representatives and
Who, the only ones are, Thy divine will to know

Thus

In Thy holy name, the blood of those of different
Opinion shed 
Although 
Love in their hearts proclaim to harbor!
