A Christmas Prayer
"O God, our help in ages past,
our hope in years to be"~
Look down upon this PRESENT
And see our need of Thee...
For in this age of unrest,
With danger all around,
We need Thy hand to lead us
TO higher, safer ground...
We need Thy help and counsel
To make us more aware
That our safety and security
Lie solely in Thy care...
And so we pray this Christmas
To feel thy presence near
And for Thy all-wise guidance
Throughout the coming year...
First, give us understanding
Enough to make us kind,
So we may judge all people
With out heart and not our mind...
Then give us strength and courage
To be honorable and true
And place our trust implicitly
In "UNSEEN THINGS" and "YOU"...
And help us when we falter
And renew our faith each day
And forgive our human errors
And hear us when we pray,...
And keep us gently humble
In the GREATNESS OF THY LOVE
So some day we are fit to dwell
With Thee in Peace Above.
