Stop Human Trafficking

Dear Lord,

Please stop the world from all abuse
and human trafficking.
Take hold of those who ruin lives,
and end their wretched rings.

Send help to those trapped in these wars,
and held against their will,
and victims who’ve been lured by lies,
by those with evil skills.

Lord, gather those enslaved by crime
and soothe their anguished souls.
Release them from the chains that bind—
mend hearts and make them whole.

Calm their fears and give them strength—
please tend to all their needs.
Come shield them from the wicked ones
who sow such evil seeds.

Please lead them to a place that’s safe,
where they may find some rest—
a place where they’ll be undisturbed,
and be no longer stressed.

Deploy Your angels, one-and-all,
to ward off evil crime.
Protect the victims of these wars
and make the bad serve time.

Yes . . .

Please stop the wars on violence,
abuse, and trafficking.
Protect the pure and innocent
from every evil thing.
