Twenty-Four Hours and Counting (Audrey)

Jesus help my family when I'm gone
O God, be merciful to my family

Bless the good I've sown
O God, be merciful to me

Spare me from the evil I've shown
O God, be merciful to me

My loves are close to my heart; my loves are close at home
O God, be merciful to my family

One more second, one more day to be known
God has been merciful to me!

For Audrey's contest themed one day left to live in the kyrielle form.

Timothy Brumley Date: 7/4/2010 7:26:00 AM Doris, I pray this same prayer every day! And if I had but one day left to live, I think I'd spend half of it on the phone saying 'Goodbye', and the other half on my knees saying 'Hello'. You have S-mail. And good luck in the contest! Login to Reply
