PRAYER

A Little Prayer

It is the way that man can talk to God
Communing as friend with friend
A way for a heart to be thankful,
Thanking the Lord, for all things
For all things come from Him

The song birds sing a new song
Each morning as the sun is rising
As the petals of the rose open
To the light of the sun in a new day
Placed in this world by our Lord

Fluffy summer clouds dot the sky
Happily floating across the blue
Telling of His splendor in the day
Passing by the face of the sun
To cool and make pleasure array

The blossoms spring forth in splendor
As the perfume of April blows on the wind
New birth springs forth everywhere on the earth
The withered grass is replaced by the new
Green shuts, shutting up to meet the warm sun

Spring turns into summer, as the fruit begins to form
The Lords production plant is spinning on the big wheel
As the food supplies grow, to meet our stomachs need
For the Lord has promised to meet our every need
We give thanks to the Lord, for all things come from Him


Bronze wheat a-shimmer, purple shade of trees
The apples they turn to crimson red
From a pretty shade of green and gold
The harvest is on its way, the seed sixty fold
Let us be thankful, our Lord of Life, for all of these!



Praise For The Simple Things

Lord help us give praise, for simple sights; -
The blue smoke curling from the cowboys fire
For the stars sparkling all through the night,
Seeing the birds take flight, as one approaches

For dew drops on the flower petals
Sparkling in the morning sun,
For the mountains grand, on the horizon
Dawning snow caps against a clear blue sky
For simple sights let us give praise, Lord!

Let us be grateful, God, for good health
That we have another day to do a good deed
For faith to follow you, thankful for a conscience clean,
Thanks for the desire to worship you and for the gift of prayer;
For giving to us worth by putting a part of you in there


Let us be grateful, God, with humble heart.
Help us come on bended knee to you in prayer
Each day being thankful for all of the little things
That you give and do for us each day
I am thankful Lord that you are always there.
