Lord help the rapists to avoid their occasional pangs of guilt
Grant
inner calm to the armed robbers and the burglars of the night
Jesus
grant the vicious young murderers yet a third second chance
May
there be mercy for the drug dealers as they just go about their jobs
God
see that the unrepentant alcoholics get yet another binge
Bring
a peaceful blindness to those who voluntarily choose not to see
Christ,
let the persecuted pedophiles find succor in thy love
Take
away the environmental issues which stymie our economic progress
Lord
help the vapid salesman quickly waste his unearned income
Grant
peace to those who cunningly fleece the elderly and disabled
Jesus
give that sweaty, smelly Meth head one more runup on that Crank
May
there be mercy for angry boyfriends even as they shake those tiny
infants
God
see that the gang bangers continue killing each other, each and every
day
Keep
reason away from those who take such loud pride in their ignorance
Christ,
let the rich stay quite safely locked away and keep the poor in their
places
Take
away political scruples that they may fervently beat the big lies
into a glorious truth
Lord
help the remorseful gambler build up yet another stake to lose
Grant
us abundant cheap liquor and drugs for the homeless in their filthy
alleys
Jesus
give the campaign contributing military contractor another bloated,
no-bid contract
May
the workaholic finish just one more task before falling over dead on
the way home
God
see that the innocent children continue to die without any reason
except by your will
Bring
the slick pimps more lost young women to charm, drug, abuse and
enslave
Christ,
let the developers fulfill their greedy dystopian vision from sea to
sea
Take
away this foolish liberal whining over pristine lands and forest
creatures
Lord
help the swindlers find greedy marks with timely, new and better
scams
Grant
restful slumber to those we send off to kill foreign civilians to
keep us safe
Jesus
give us the hubris to proceed in our folly despite all this
conflicting evidence
May
the pornographers find more ways to inflame our insatiable appetites
God
see that the amoral coyotes find safe desert places to abandon silent
illegale victims
Bring
us grisly disasters upon which the wicked can swoop to prey
Christ,
let the handicapped continue accepting their lot in patient silence
Take
away our common sense that we once more foolishly invest only to lose
again
Lord
help the dirty, old hooker entrap yet another lonely, drunken john
Grant
that all ruthless, absolute dictators die peacefully in their sleep
Jesus,
give the assassin good timing and a steady hand
May
we not need worry at all until it is so late we can rest assured that
it cannot be helped
God,
see that we never forget that in your image we stand apart from
nature
Please
hurry with this mass extinction so we can get on with our lives in
peace
Christ,
let the weak and poor continue to find their only hope in you through
us, your vessels
Take
away their reason that they may meekly accept their filthy lot in
blind faith
