January 3/10 Poems

Widen My World

Lord, open my eyes that I might see
Those around me that are in need
That I would be your helper
Lord, widen my world.

Lord, help me be a part of the work
That You are doing in the world
Open my eyes to the world around me
Lord, please widen my world.

Lord, give me eyes to see as You see
Give me hands to serve others
As you have given the example
Lord, widen my world this year.

Lord, give me a heart of compassion
That I would share Your love
To those each day I meet
Lord, widen my world.

Amen.

If I would look through the eyes of Jesus, I would see a needy world.
Matthew 28:16-20
