O God, forgive our rich nations where small babies die of cold quite legally. O God, forgive our rich nation where small children suffer from hunger quite legally. O God, forgive our rich nation where toddlers and school children die from guns sold quite legally. O God, forgive our rich nation that lets children be the poorest group of citizens quite legally. O God, forgive our rich nation that lets the rich continue to get more at the expense of the poor quite legally. O God, forgive our rich nation, which thinks security rests in missiles rather than in mothers, and in bombs rather than babies. O God, forgive our rich nation for not giving You sufficient thanks by giving to others their daily bread. O God, help us never to confuse what is quite legal with what is just and right in your sight. –Marian Wright Edelman
