God and religion, Poem

Well, I'd like to keep this very short not to cheat the enormous work thats going to come from me on this topic :D.
Of late I have been referring to many major religions and reading up the matter thats accessable to common public, atleast in a broader sense. And very recently I got in touch with a chat friend who is a devout Jain. The discussion started off with me not believing in God. Rather, I can put it as me losing the belief in God gradually, after more than 22 years, through realisation (realisation! thats ironic :P). Ofcourse, logic and intution being my swords.

The discussion, went on till me trying to prove a fault in the most peaceful religion Jainism and ended in me getting convinced that Jainism was infact successful in coveringup this fault by giving up a vent to its rigour.
I wanted to write this to publicize a poem written by the person as a message, and I found it very appealling, not as appealling as to change my opinions though. Anyway me aside :P, the poem goes as follows.

Nobody knows the power of prayer

but somebody is listening with a friendly ear
for the heart that calls

someone who knows when a sparrow falls

Miracle lies in the power of prayer

faith that can vanish all despair

hope that can bear like a holy light

and brighten the darkest night

When earthly help is of no avail

Theres one friend who will never fail

Just lift your eyes

the anwer is there

Thats the power of prayer
