Tonight I Pray

Help me Lord with times at hand
                                    Help me face my fellow man,
 
                                   Give me strength , to carry on
                                   Thank you for the days that are gone
 
                                  Thank you for my Daily breads
                                   And for our beds to rest our heads
 
                                  Thank you for my gift of life
                                   And for my kids I thank you Twice
 
                                 Bless them lord for they're of youth
                                 I'd give my life to give them truth
 
                               For they know not for what they do
                               Help me teach them Lord of you
 
                               Grant me the wisdom in your light
                               To teach them of the wrongs and rights
 
                               And if it be in your will
                               Just one more day to help them with
                                 lifes up hills
 
                              with your help I'll surely win
                               Thank - you God,
 
                                                    I pray,
                                                              AMEN...
