Living the Dream

I am feeling at peace 
        dealing smoothly with strife,
	humbly kneeling each day 
        giving thanks, for I know
	I am living the dream
        in my purpose-filled life.
	I pray, "God, please let this 
        state of happiness grow   
        till the end of my days. 
        Let the jubilance flow!"
