Musing from a contemplative mind....
"Lord, bless everyone"
I knelt to pray when day was done
And prayed, "Lord, bless everyone"
Lift from each heart the pain
And let the sick be well again
And then I woke again one day
And carelessly went on my way
The whole day long I did not try
To wipe a tear from any eye
Nor share the load
Of anyone on the road
I did not even go to see
the sick next door to me.
Once again when every day was done
I prayed, "Lord, bless everyone."
But as I prayed to my ear
Came a voice that whispered dear
Hypocrite, before you pray
Whom have you tried to bless today?
God’s blessings always go
By hands that serve Him here below
And then I hid my face and cried
"Forgive me Lord, for I have lied
Let me but live another day
And I will live the way I pray."
And prayed, "Lord, bless everyone"
Lift from each heart the pain
And let the sick be well again
And then I woke again one day
And carelessly went on my way
The whole day long I did not try
To wipe a tear from any eye
Nor share the load
Of anyone on the road
I did not even go to see
the sick next door to me.

I prayed, "Lord, bless everyone."

By hands that serve Him here below
And then I hid my face and cried
"Forgive me Lord, for I have lied
Let me but live another day
And I will live the way I pray."
