Prayers
Of
Anger
There is so much anger around now. I feel it myself and for all those around me — I feel such empathy for the frustration of millions in this country. It was while looking for prayers that might deal with anger, I realised that prayers are not written by people who feel anger… but lots of sanctimonious people like to tell us what to do with our anger. So, I created this website, with a section called Prayers of Anger.
I Pray for Heat
I pray for heat
In an island of cold
Where the rich are warm
The hungry forgotten
I pray for heat
In an island of cold
And the poor and the young
And the hungry old
The homeless and sad
The server and served
Are forgotten
And yet kindness is there
Beyond the ugly reach
Of controlled power
Power that could give warmth
So let us join together
And pray for heat
In this place
So distressed, so cold
Let us turn to each other
And light the light of compassion
And remember each other
Give and give and reach out
So that the good in our hearts
Lights the flames of kindness
Recalling the warmth of spring
So we may be set free
And rest in the peace of warmth
Light and love
