I pray you to take me to that height, <br />From where fall is not possible, <br />But I know my worth, <br />Being a human being I am the victim of <br />All those infirmities which a comman man has, <br />Jealousy, prejudice, hatred, anger, and greed, <br />inhabit my mind, <br />I confess my sin yet I am not strong enough <br />To stay away from them, <br />O Lord, forgive my sin, <br />And help me attain that height of spiritual glory, <br />From where fall is not possible.<br /><br />Mohammad Akmal Nazir<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-common-man-s-prayer/
