Dear Heavenly Father
Give me a heart full of love, Tenderness and gentleness That come only from above. Help me to be kind and give me A heart that's compassionate Watching what I say that my Words might not be passionate. Help me listen with my heart That I might feel another's pain; Give me words that comfort and bless And bring glory to your Name. Fill me with courage and strength To do my duties with diligence, To care for my sick loved one With longsuffering and patience. Give me peace and contentment In a world full of chaos That I might serve Thee better As long as I shall last. Help me to be blind and deaf To the things that upset me; Help me to focus instead On your world full of beauty. The orchids in the garden, The brush of butterfly wings Are Nature's reminders of hope That help my weary heart to sing. Help me to see that caregiving Is not a heavy cross to bear But a precious opportunity to Develop Christ's image so fair. Thank you, God, for your patience And your love that sustains; I'll praise you forever and ever In the name of Jesus. Amen. Copyrighted © Lydia Haga 2004
