I wouldn’t dare presume to plan your way
each mind is fit to follow it’s own star
so please, don’t ever tell me how to pray.
How easily the lonely heart can stray,
discouraged by a goal that seems too far—
I wouldn’t dare presume to plan your way.
Is your belief more potent; who can say?
The truth we cherish makes us what we are
so please, don’t ever tell me how to pray.
A Mecca to some holy land can sway
your searching soul to seek the highest bar;
I wouldn’t dare presume to plan your way,
I’ll recommend an option if I may
but you must find the door that is ajar.
So please, don’t ever tell me how to pray
and I won’t tell you where to go today.
Each path we take will leave a livid scar—
I wouldn’t dare presume to plan your way
so please, don’t ever tell me how to pray.

Your plan is counterintuitive to religious practice. For the lasting peace promised by (whichever) religion that religion must first be practiced by every individual on this planet, and it would help if first there were very few individuals and they had little or no contact with each other. Wait, is that cynical?
