My Daily Prayer
My Daily Prayer
Words can break a gentle heart
or help to build a smile.
They can set a soul at ease
or put someone on trial.
I'm tired of the hateful words
filled with cruelty
please help me, Lord, remember
how they've effected me.
Remind me to weigh all the words
that I chance to use
for there is much importance
in all the words we choose.
Temper them, dear Lord, for me
with all my heart, I pray.
Fill them with love and kindness
every single day.
God, help me build a better world
with this gift you gave me.
Make me a good example of
the man you sent to save me.
