Billy Graham's Prayer For Our Nation

'Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to


seek your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those


who call evil good,' but that is exactly what we have done. We have lost


our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values.. We have exploited the


poor and called it the lottery. We have rewarded laziness and called it


welfare. We have killed our unborn and called it choice. We have shot


abortionists and called it justifiable. We have neglected to discipline


our children and called it building self esteem. We have abused power


and called it politics. We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and


called it ambition. We have polluted the air with profanity and


pornography and called it freedom of expression. We have ridiculed the


time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.


Search us, Oh God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin


and Set us free. Amen!'
