Prayer For the Grieving

Lord, give me an ear; One that hears and listens; One that transports feelings To the heart and not the mouth; Ears that absorb the griefs of others Like a sponge, and release reassuring Light like beacons of the night; Ears that Are conduits of healing and restoration. Lord, give me an ear that needs no voice, But eyes that gaze into the hearts of hurting souls, And without lips, echo the sounds of genuine comfort, Lasting compassion, understanding, and enduring love. 102921PS
