Rog's Rhymes~~~Everyday A ThanksgivingEveryday a Thanksgiving Oh Lord; give me the faith that will mountains move, Help me bow only to your will Take away my doubting thoughts, my impetuous nature ever still * Remove from me the fear of death that haunts my every waking hour, Help me to understand it's but an illusion Let me bask in glorious life, yet embrace its grand conclusion * Help me believe that my leave taking from this earth, not to be feared, Is the greatest journey I will ever take, That my repentance saves me, from all the transgressions I will make * Let me love all my friends with the greatest of unbridled passion But let me not fear their final parting Yet instill in me the strong belief that their life is only starting * Most of all, Our Lord, help me to be thankful for blessings I've received Finding awesome joy in my everyday living Make my time on this earth an adventure, everyday a thanksgiving ~ I think it wonderful to look towards heaven with anticipation but we need to also enjoy the blessing God has provided for us here on earth © Roger Eugene Corell, October 21, 2007 Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem
