secular prayer
The night I woke up in my sleep and prayed for peace. It is all the same. Help us who gave up our passion for the family. G-d, J-hova, J-sus, A-lah, Krishna, Vishnu, It is all the same. Protect us from those those who do harm. Protect us from those who do harm in thy name. Help us raise our families. Help us, the miners, who toil underground. Help us the military who keep our borders safe. Help us who rescue others in times of danger. Help us who keep others healthy. Help us who only wish to provide for our family. Help us who want to make a better world for our neighbors. Help us who wish for peace in Thy name.

I would call that ecumenical rather than secular. There is some truth in all people's understanding of Diety. Truth never changes no matter how hard we try to change it.

As to the 2nd and 3rd sentences, I'd just smile and nod my head.
