A Prayer for the Families and Friends of those Murdered in New York and Sutherland Springs, Texas
This prayer was found on the wall of a cellar. It was written by a Jew imprisoned in a concentration camp in Cologne Germany.
I believe in the sun
even when it is not shining
And I believe in love,
even when there’s no one there.
And I believe in God,
even when he is silent.
I believe through any trial,
there is always a way.
But sometimes in this suffering
and hopeless despair
my heart cries for shelter,
to know someone’s there.
But a voice rises within me, saying
“Hold on my child, I’ll give you strength, I’ll give you hope. Just stay a little while.”
I believe in the sun
even when it is not shining.
And I believe in love
even when there’s no one there.
But I believe in God
even when he is silent.
I believe through any trial
there is always a way.
May there someday be sunshine
May there someday be happiness
May there someday be love
May there someday be peace.
