A Prayer In Song



O, Lord, I pray thee to forgive
     These many sins of mine;
And ever teach me how to live
     To be more wholly thine.
Then when temptations beckon me
     To follow paths of wrong,
My faith and strength will be in thee
     To whom I give this song.
Let each and every one of us
     Give something great or small
To him who died upon the cross,
     To save us, one and all.
There’s some of us who have no gold,
     And so no offering make;
But every mortal has a soul,
     Which God is glad to take.



Aug. 3rd, ‘90
