Oh heavenly father I believe in you with the whole heart -
yet, I suffer daily as I bare witness to suffering in this world -
Praying in the secret place where your spirit dwells -
In the hidden temple of the soul is my hunger for you -
Aching with need of you oh lord -
War is being waged against your people father -
For all are your people having created us all -
Bring mankind the wisdom of true brotherly love -
Heal us with your divine virtue -
So in time we'll evolve becoming more like you -
Our deeds reflecting your presence in us -
Causing even our enemies to love us because your in us -
Having always been with us in that secret place of the heart -
Where the truth is not rejected by the most diligent of seekers -
Remake my imperfect will that I may be at peace even though the world isn't -
As I utter prayers to you for my brothers in this life -
That the whole being might prosper -
This is my prayer -

Dear Nannar,
The beauty of your heart is reflected in these words.
