Be Brave

God can give you a brave and happy heart.
He has all creative power from the start.
Give Him all the pieces.
He will free you from the "leeches,"
Those things that leech-away your strength.
With sublime faith you can go the length
Of each day or night in peace and healing.
Like a child, fearless joy you will be feeling. 
Trusting, laughing, appreciative and brave,
Give God all and you'll have what you crave:
That blessing only God gives to you,
The Love, Respect, and Communion true.
