Living for the Remnants

Only God and prayer can heal it:
The dreadful wound your loss has made.
Find thankfulness and never quit;
Embrace what you have left today.

When melancholy cords arise
Cast dissonance far, far away
Let gratefulness revive your eyes;
Embrace what you have left today.

If you still have someone to love
And a place where a bed is made
You have more than enough thereof;
Embrace what you have left today.

If you have friends that never left
Someone to help you on your way
Thank God of these you’re not bereft
Embrace what you have left today.

If pain can cease for a moment
Use the time to earnestly pray
Too many tears spent in lament
Embrace what you have left today.
