Please Allow Us To Become Children Longing For Our Real Father

At this time an inadequate group
of small numbers
has gathered before you.

Our minds and bodies
have good conditions
or harmonizing with the world,
but we have bowed down before you
as those who cannot help
but stand far away from you
in our relationship.
Therefore, Father, please separate us.

We earnestly hope and desire
that if our wounds are severe, you will
please let your compassion
reach those wounds,

and when you see
that we cannot appear before you
as we should, please comfort us.

Please allow us to have minds
able to feel sorry
and lament over the fact
that we are imperfect beings
who are ashamed before you
and have nothing to offer you.

Deep in our hearts,
please allow minds
that adore you to blossom.
Please allow us
to hear your voice
as it called out
in the original Garden of Eden,
and to feel your holiness
which our ancestors could not feel.

Please allow us
to become your simple
and pure children
who can penetrate to your heart
of longing and love
which desires to embrace us
in the midst of your mind.

We earnestly hope that you will feel
the unbreakable blood relationship
we have with you
and will desire so much to see us
that you will not be able
to help embracing us
and will not be able
to help coming to us.

Father!
When we called you "Father,"
we were not able to do so
with a voice that flowed out
of a sincere mind
which penetrated
even our flesh and bones.

We have not been able
to have a time
when we could rush
to you and cling to you
from a position of oneness
with that kind of emotion.

Since we have not been able
to know you clearly in that was
please allow us to be able
to perceive you clearly.

Please allow us to become
those who struggle
with deeply moved minds
to grasp your outstretched hand
and the train of your garment
and never let go.

We earnestly hope and desire
that you will allow us
to call you "Father"
in that kind of position
and to become able
to cling to you
and confide in you there.

We have humbly prayed all these things
in the name of the True Parents. Amen.
