"O God, deliver our nation and our world
from those men in positions of authority
who resort to violence
to carry out their objectives.
They sweet-talk us into believing
they are acting in our interests,
and brainwash us into blind,
flag-waving allegiance,
until we march by their side
into bloody wars that decimate and destroy
our brothers and sisters
in the family of man.
Deliver all of us, O Lord,
from the notion that anything of value or worth
can be obtained by hostile or violent actions."
- Leslie Brandt, "Psalms Now"
