In Response To: POWERLIFTERS PRAYER (PAT CARROLL)

A POWERLIFTER'S PRAYER
Written in 1976 by Philip Alan "Red" Swaim (1937 - 2004)

Oh God of strength
Oh God so strong
I have marched through the trenches
So hard and so long
And now the main battle
Is drawing near
It is the biggest meet
Of the year
And in the squat
Where the big iron rides high
Let me go low enough
For the judge's eye
And on the bench press
Let me be strong and tight
So the judges will find
All three alright
And on the deadlift
When my belt is tight
Let me pull
With all my might
No plaining or hitching
Until the end

In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
