Prayer Poem by Ima Ryma

God's will and not my will be done.
To know God's will, then I must pray.
I know I am a selfish one.
My self will oft gets in the way.
So when I pray for something, I
Must seek to my own self be true.
Do I find God's truth or my lie?
What is the true right thing to do?
Plants and animals, I believe,
In all time and place live God's will.
Instinctively they won't deceive,
Whether living through good or ill.

Only humankind needs to pray.
We're the only from God to stray.
