Prayer of the cockerel:
Forgive me, Lord,
for so often I greet the morning
with a groan and a grimace.
Teach me instead to awake
with a song in my heart,
celebrating the new dawn
you make possible each day.

Prayer of the sheep and the cow:
Teach me, Lord,
that differences need not divide;
that, however unlikely it may seem,
you can draw all people together,
and truly make them one.
