A Prayer for 12 year old Demetrius Townsel Jr. Murdered in Chicago
May 2020
Demetrius Townsel
A child is killed a life is gone
We share the grief and pray that justice will be done
We love the right and reject the wrong
Jesus help us ban every gun.
Most precious is the child above all others Jesus said
His life was taken, yet his spirit lives
and he has risen from the dead,
and so too will Demetrius live again
in the presence of the Lord
and his spirit will be with us and to eternal life has soared.
Lord embrace and welcome him and strengthen his friends and family
Lord may truth and goodness bring justice,peace and right,
May we continue to be with You through every day and night.
