Native American Indian Prayer (Amazing Grace Chant)

Hold on to what is good, even if it's a handful of Earth, hold on to what you believe, even if it's a tree that stands by itself, hold on to what you must do, even if it's a long way from here, hold on to your life, even if it's easier to let go, hold onto my hand, even if someday I'll be gone away from you... Oh great spirit whose voice I hear in the winds, and whose breath gives life to all the world. hear me. I am small and weak; I need your strength and wisdom. Let me walk in your beauty, and make my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset, make my hands respect the things you have made, and my ears sharp to hear your voice, make me wise so that I may understand the things you have taught my people. let me learn the lessons you have hidden in every leaf, and Rock I seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy, myself... Make me always ready to come to you with Clean Hands, and straight eyes, so when life Fades as The Fading Sunset my spirit may come to you without Shame. Amen.
