A Prayer for Freedom

“Write,” You ask, and write I did,

I am still at Your disposal.

A flickering light, and eternal flame,

A synagogue of sorrow.

Save us now, it’s time my G-d,

Bring them out, enough!

You said this will is Your will now,

Yet they are still in chains.

Abused, mistreated, broken more,

Why do You not just bring them?

G-d, You promised me an open door,

Yet their chains are not broken.

It’s time, dear G-d, I did Your bidding,

One more chapter to upload,

And when I do, You must give in,

Bring them all back home.

It’s time, my G-d, You know it is.

I will not let this go on--

This insanity, we’re living in--

You said You will stop it.

So stop it, G-d, I know You can;

Through miracles or people;

It’s all the same, it’s all for One,

Bring them out of darkness.

Free the stolen, free the abused,

Free their own victims--

Rid us of all this hate,

Cleanse Your world for Your sake!

So, G-d, my dear, my dealing Wind,

This one more step I will take--

But I ask then in its wake, this hell You will break.
