Pray for Putin
Pray for Putin by all means
It’s certain Christ would do
But stop him in his tracks
As Jesus would do too
Before he was a preacher
Jesus healed the sick
And cast the traders out
Of the Temple with a stick
He was a man of prayer
But of action also
Fasting for forty days
Wedding wine from water.
Pray for Putin’s soul
But don’t sit down with him
If his gun is loaded
And pointing at your shin.
Be harmless as the doves
But also wise as serpents
Beware the fox in fleece
No reward for innocence.
Like the Danish prayer
Of sailors in the storm
Pray to God by all means
While pulling on the oars.
