Poem: "Prayer of Submission"

Calm me O Lord!

Sooth  my anger

Grant me love to share

 

Open my heart O Lord

instill tolerance in me

Grant me love to share

 

Open my eyes O Lord

to  the needs of others

Grant me love to share

 

Fill my mouth O Lord

with words to heal

Grant me love to share

 

Make me a Blessing O Lord

for all, that cross my path

Grant me love to Share
