Prayer for Resurrection by Reverend Sun Myung Moon
The thing that many people have longed for and aspired to is the garden of hope, the garden of your idea, but there has been no one who sang that this is the whole of hope while holding you.
We must open our eyes and look to heaven.
Father! Please allow our hearts to endlessly soar up towards you.
Father! Please let us take a close look at our minds, and please let us consider our bodies, and please guide us to become sons and daughters whose minds and bodies are able to be moved to tears by your heart.
Please bear with our not being able to feel love when we come before your majesty, and please bear with our not having been able to work hard for the world.
We have not been able to bring anything to give you, Father.
Beloved Father! We know that the only thing remaining before us is the will of heavenly morality.
Father! Please allow us to come to understand all the content of those grief filled 6,000 years and your internal situation during that time.
We know that you are lamenting that on the earth there are no embodiments of your words of goodness that you spoke in the Garden of Eden
Oh Father who has promised the resurrection of life! Please find again the original external form which you created for us.
Oh Father of love! Please extend your hand and take the hands of your inadequate children and guide us.
We know that the course of restoration is one that goes on and on without end, and we human beings must go in cycles over and over with grief remaining.
