Grant Me O Lord

Grant me, O Lord A heart with the strength of Samson To break the barriers of indifference To the needs of my neighbor; A mind with the Wisdom of Solomon To identify those who hate me So that I can love them more; A soul with the courage of David To see beyond my wellbeing To foster the happiness of my neighbor; The lips that laugh Along with my enemies, A tongue that never tires Of telling the truth, And the eyes that see your Will In everything around me.
