Stray Cat
Prayer
Dear God, please send me somebody who'll
care,
I'm so tired of running and sick with
despair.
My body is aching and filled with such
pain
And dear God I pray, as I run in the
rain
That someone will love me and give me a
home
A warm sturdy bed, and food of my
own.
My last owner left me in the
yard........
I watched as they moved, and God that was
hard.
So I waited a while, then went my own
way.
To rummage in garbage and live as a
stray.
But now God, I'm so tired and hungry and
cold
And I'm afraid that I'll never grow
old
They've chased me with sticks and hit me
with straps
While I run the streets looking for
scraps.
I'm not really bad God, please help if
you can.
For I have become a "Victim of
Man".
I'm wormy, dear God, and ridden with
fleas
And all that I want is a owner to
please.
If you find one for me God, I'll try and
be good
I won't scratch the carpet: I'll do as I
should.
I'll love them, play with them, and try
to obey
I'll be so grateful if they'll just let me stay.
I don't think I'll make it too long on my
own
"Cause I'm getting weak and I'm so all
alone.
Each night as I sleep in the bushes I
cry
'Cause I'm so afraid God, I'm going to
die.
I've got so much love and devotion to
give
That I should be given a new chance to
live
So dear God, please hear me, please
answer my prayer
And send me somebody who will really
care.

Rescuer's Prayer
RESCUER'S PRAYER
Now I lay me down to rest,
I pray my soul can stand this test
Of watching critters lose a home,
While owners gripe and cry and
moan.
I long for strength of spirit and
I pray they'll find a home again,
Where they will know a loving
heart.
I can't do much, but its a
start...
And spare me from the owner's
pleas
About the baby's allergies,
Or how they're moving out of
state,
Or spitefulness 'tween cat and
mate.
Please keep me sane while dealing
with
The woman who bought as a gift,
A wriggling tiny ball of fluff
That now is playing way too rough.
Remind me I should bite my lip
When confronted with, "he grew too
quick",
"I didn't know he'd get so large",
"He seems to think that he's in
charge."
Protect my heart when I hear them
say,
"I think we'll breed him one day."
Sometimes I think it'll break in
two;
Each day brings trials harsh and
new
And if I die before I wake,
I pray one hopeless soul you'll
take.
My tears are gone, my faith is
bare.
Lord, please hear my rescue
prayer.
