Give to me the patience
Dear Lord,
Give to me the patience
That I shall need each day--
The tenderness and caring
For those who come my way.
Give me understanding--
I need it, God, so much.
Put in my hands and in my heart
Your gentle, loving touch.
Make my ears, my eyes, my thoughts--
Every day aware
That I can keep my pledge
With You to help me care.
Amen
