Please let us appear as sons and daughters who can promise filial piety to you, Father, who can dwell amid your heart. 

1

Please let us appear as sons and daughters who can promise filial piety to you, Father, who can dwell amid your heart.

2

Father! In addition to having minds that adore you and minds that long for you so much that we cannot endure without loving you, please let us become sons and daughters who long for you, Father, even if we lose consciousness, collapse, or are on the verge of death. We did not know that you are longing for many children who can feel ashamed about their inadequate selves even though they have given all kinds of devotion and sacrifice to realize your will.

3

We earnestly hope and desire, Father, that you will allow us Unification children to become your children who know how to make efforts to see our heavenly father look joyful while we cover our faces and suppress our joy for fear that our joy might show in front of you.

4

Father! Please do not let there be anything in our real relationships that holds us back as brave people in the vanguard standing before the will. Since we know well that we are all precious brothers and sisters who were born with each individual receiving one blood lineage centered on the love of you who are perfect, please let us become children who know how to stop and go together with your sorrow. We earnestly hope and desire, Father, that you will let us become true filial sons and daughters who can shoulder your yoke in your stead and release you from it.

5

Oh, Father! Your children who have gathered together here are children who have already pledged themselves to you, Father. Since they have pledged millions of times to offer their minds and bodies to you, please allow them to offer their bodies to you in purity. We earnestly hope and desire that you will allow us to become your children who sanctify our bodies and offer them eternally to you, Father, and who make efforts to become sons and daughters who reveal your love in place of you. We have humbly prayed in the holy name of the True Parents. Amen.
