Poem
(was written for the contest, but sadly forgot to enter the contest) Oh, my Father in Heaven, Guarding me from all perils and trials And sets my heart free of clutter, For you, my songs of praise, I reserve. All my life, I shall sing Without fail, in bloom or gloom, On every unfolding day Through months and years Till death and beyond Let my songs sail across the skies And with the chorus of the heavenly band, unite. Oh, the benevolent Lord of all creation, Custodian of all wealth, Contriver of birth and death, The Master Craftsman, Everything is your handiwork. The lofty mounts Veiled in misty snow, The verdant dales Lush and still, The fathomless deep Where mysteries peep, All the flowers That bloom and wither, All things Bright and beautiful, Everything, above and below In all, Let me behold Thy grace And sing Thy praise! Oh! Redeemer of Mankind Guide me through the dark, Guard my steps where dangers lurk Hold my hand And never loosen your grip Make me face the light Illumine me with wisdom serene And fill me with love divine; So that You shall be glorified Here, on Earth, And in Heaven be Jan.5.2022 Songs of Praise Poetry Contest Sponsor- Robert James Liguori
