Todays Prayer
Today’s prayer
8/8/2019
Tom
Lord,
This prayer is for the haters, Intent on having their say
Convict their hearts In a special way
For the sinister, Who take pleasure in taking a life
Earlier this week it was a gun, This morning it was a knife
And for those who feel the need to “race bait” today
Let them get their attention in some other way
Lift their thoughts above, Cause them to see you
Give each a desire, to speak Of things which are true
Remember life’s downtrodden Let me never forget
And for political annoyances Which we’re beset
For our Country’s future Which sometimes looks bleak
But primarily Lord,
Today, cause our leaders to think Before they speak
Amen
