Fill my heart with rays of hope
Show me how to learn to cope.
With wars and hunger and fear and strife,
And all the hardships through out life.
Teach me how to love again
And how to teach my fellowmen.
Guide me with your understanding
So I may love unselfishly and undemanding.
Please tell Him for me
How close to Him I long to be
And when to Him one day I'll come
I'll kneel and say "Thy will be done."
Joyce Carol Beaulieu
