My Prayer This Spring

Where there were storms
    I pray for calm
Where is hurt
    I pray for healing
Where there is loss
    I pray for comfort
Where there is anger
    I pray for peace
Where there is lonliness
    I pray for love
Where there is discord
    I pray for unity
Where there is defeat
    I pray for triumph
Where there is despair
    I pray for hope
Where there is death
    I pray for rebirth
Where there is destruction
    I pray for rebuilding
Where there is silence
    I pray for singing
Where there are tears
    I pray for joy
