A PRAYER, by                    
First Line: O god, who made us for thyself
Last Line: In earnest expectation and courageous quest.
Subject(s): Faith; Prayer; Belief; Creed


O God, Who made us for Thyself,
Keep us unafraid;
Unafraid of life,
Unafraid of death,
Unafraid of the darkness or the silences;
Unafraid of more light,
Unafraid of more truth,
Unafraid of experiment and adventure.
Rekindle in all hearts
The spirit of divine desire;
Strengthen all hands
Reached out to find Thee;
Make all men comrades
In earnest expectation and courageous quest.
