A Christmas Eve prayer for all the unloved Dogs in the World
by Scamp RamsayOn this night of all nights Lord, please can you remember
The Dogs who never have the love, that I do in December
On this night of all nights Lord, keep all dogs nice and warm
But please Lord most importantly, keep them safe from harmOn this night of all nights Lord, let them find some meat
For they are cold and starving as they lie upon the streetOn this night of all nights Lord, please take the lives of those
Who are suffering and in dreadful pain, from their tail right to their noseOn this night of all nights Lord, please don’t make it snow
It may be nice for lucky Dogs, with homes and fires that glowOn this night of all nights Lord, let them feel no pain
For all the love we send them, will only be in vainOn this night of all nights Lord, please take away their fear
And let them not be kicked or beaten, and shed another tearOn this night of all nights Lord, a gift they do not need
Could they just have a family, to love and give them feedOn this night of all nights Lord, don’t give them a big fat goose
Please just get them rescued, from their chain that’s like a nooseOn this night of all nights Lord, Santa knows they’ve not been bad
So why do they get tortured, by their evil drunken DadOn this night of all nights Lord, why would someone hurt a Dog
Or tie them up outside the house in ice, wind, snow and fogOn this night of all nights Lord, as they sit there cold and wet
Just tell them it is possible, this is as bad as life will getOn this night of all nights Lord, I’m as lucky as can be
I only wish those other Dogs, could spend this night with me.Amen
Amen.
Brought tears to my eyes, just one night of happiness and safety.
That is a huge AMEN!!
Very moving. Thank you for sharing these thoughts! And may God bless all of God’s creatures and keep them safe from harm and man hand in their demise; whatever form it takes. Bob, Jacob and Pita
I will print this, and say it as often as I can, not just during the holiday season.
This is great… If only all pets could be as happy and loved as us!

Amen.
This will be forwarded in all my Christmas emails. That was beautiful Scamp!
Dear Scamp - your poem was beautiful and touching, poignant and painful. Your words reach out and pierce my heart. I’d give up every Christmas for myself if it would forever save the homeless, abused, neglected, and unloved dogs.
Touching, made our human cry… We only wish that all the children and animals suffering this Christmas could be helped. Just don’t understand how people can be so cruel.. to things so helpless.
Amen. I posted this in my group page! Thanks
AMEN. Good Job Scamp! We will be praying this prayer every night, not just Christmas Eve. We wish all doggies could be as loved and lucky as we are.
sweet poem, i’ll pass it onto all my doggie friends
dear scamp, that was beautiful….i too pray that all these poor abused dogs someday will find peace and love. there are more scared and lonely dogs out there than can be imagined. may god watch out for them and find a way to give them a furever home full of warmth, safety, and lots of love. breaks my heart, i would give up everything just to make one dog happy and feel love in his life. if even just for one day, i would lose everything to do this. god bless
