My Prayer

You only get one chance to live your life so consider your options along the way

Let me do the very best I can
And in passing this way,help my fellow man
Let me speak and act with love and kindness
And always show,intelligence and refineness

Let me live a life,that's good and fine
Considering others feelings,as I want them to mine
Let me daily,try my best to improve,
And try my faults and shortcomings,to remove

Let me try to give,only good advice
And before speaking,pause and think twice
Let me travel,with a purpose,along this way
Remembering,I'm not in this world to stay

Grant me more wisdom and knowledge,
And I'm not referring to that acquired from college
Give me more understanding and love,
Bless me with faith and peace from above

When I arrive near the end of this road,
I,uncomplainingly,will carry my load,
Forgive me for what I've left undone,
And help me,the rest of this race to run

Great out look in life Joe
I must have missed this one too and an oldie too

My apologies for nit reading your fantastic work
Love & peace be with you
