When life is real hard to live:          
And most everything goes wrong:
Then, dear Lord be at our side,
Giving us strength to be strong.

When we find life fall apart,
Help us, dear Lord to take heart:
Give us the wisdom we need,
Don't let our lives fall apart.

It is with your help, dear Lord,
Through life's rough times we'll pull through:
Help us live in holiness:
In all that we say and do.    

In life, Lord, help us succeed,
To your Commands help us heed.

Stars seen in Neier's skies at night,
Are an awesome, marvelous sight:
Fireflies acrobat in the air,
No ropes can be seen anywhere.

Their flying is a real artwork,
Arrows and hearts light up the air:
This is an awesome sight to see,
A sight that makes us want to stare.

Beautiful songs that crickets play,
Add beauty to help end the day:
As nighttime flowers. open wide
Moonflowers' sweetness makes its way.

Neier's summer nights are grand to see,
It is there that we want to be.

Lord, help us be courageous,
And innocent life protect:            
Help us protect the voiceless
Who are worthy of our respect.      

You made us in your image,
Of respect we're in need of:
If others will not love us,
Then give to us, Lord your love.                    

All human life has great worth,
On a cross for us you died:
Show us how we are to live,
Dear Lord, over us preside.

Lord, help us to respect life,
Times when we encounter strife.

Flowers
Though flowers don't have blood cells,
Some have intrinsic beauty:
Some when they are in full bloom
Are real delightful to see.      

Some birds pollinate flowers.
In the nectar some delight:              
I delight in the flowers,    
That release sweetness at night.
At times when life is hectic,
And we find life hard to live:
What we're most in need of,
Is your love, Lord, to us give.        

Help us grow in holiness:              
Humble, show us how to be,        
To you Lord, help us be true,              
Show us how we're to love Thee.          

Wisdom, Lord, drill in us,
Help us so we'll become wise:
Help us, Lord, so we'll please you,
And lead us to paradise.

Help us forgive others, Lord,
You're our God to be adored.

Lord, You Endured Bitter Pains,
Like us while you were on earth:  
Even pains of bitter cold,
Especially after birth.

The pains we go through in life,
Dear Lord, help us to endure:
Help heaven be our final home,
Help our lives on earth be pure.

Lord, you endured bitter pains,
While upon a cross you hung:        
Help us not complain in life,
When we feel in life we're stung.

Bitter pains which we endure
Then your love for us assure.

Dear Blessed Mother Mary,
To Jesus, there draw us near    
When life's seems overwhelming,    
Peace have Christ  hen make appear.

Dear Mother, help us do God's will,
In all that we say and do,
To God's Commandments, Mother,
Help us be faithful and true.

Dear Blessed Mother Mary,
Give us strength we're in need of:
Like you dear Blessed Mother,
Show us Mother how to love.    

Dear Blessed Mother Mary,
Close to Jesus help us be.
In times when life seems perplexed,
And we see hope far from near:
By putting our trust in God,
Joys in life we'll see appear.

Life isn't always rosy,
Miserable at times it gets:
When things don't go as we want,
We might haul in empty nets.

God wants us to be happy,
Joys in life He'll help us find:
God wants us to be grateful,      
And to long for peace of mind.

Lead us to heaven, dear, Lord,
By us, there you'll be adored.

Lord, take my life from the earth,
To heaven, Lord, lead me there:
The weight of life’s crosses, Lord,
For me is too much to bear.

Help me carry life's crosses,
When I find life hard to live:
Needed wisdom, I need Lord,
It sufficient to me give.

I ask you Lord to help me,
Especially when there's strife:
Help me Lord to not give up,
Help me when hard I find life.

The virtues, Lord that I need,
To me give them, Lord I plead.

Lord, help me use my sufferings
To free those in purgatory:              
In whatever way they're useful,
To good use, Lord, help them to be.

Sometimes I bring them on myself,
Yet many of them I do not:
Lord, you can bring good out of them,
Many times I've sure got a lot.

Lord, times when  I encounter them,
Help me bear crosses that they bring:
Don't give me more than I can bear,
To you they are my offering.

When sufferings bring me close to you,
I can see that you love me true.

God's Love
God's unconditional love
Will always be infinite:
It is when he gives us love,    
Hearts then become brightly lit.                  

       Our lives he wants part of them,
He'll forgive sins we regret:
When we do God's will we find            
That we will not need to fret.

God wants to bring us his peace,
And fill our hearts with his love:  
With our lives God wants to help,
Do good we're capable of.

God's love for us will not cease,
On us, his peace he'll release.
To our Lord's Eternal Home,
Blessed Mother, lead me there:
Ask Christ to grant me his peace,
That I need and loving care.

Life's burdens help me to bear,
When in life I find much grief:  
When I'm in need of God's love,
From doubt, Mother, grant relief.

Things that God has made on earth,    
Help me notice their beauty:
Draw me close to Christ your Son,
And help me draw close to thee.      


When life's trials I find rough,
Give me Mother, love enough.

Friend
I love how your eyes sparkle,
Like emeralds are meant to:
I love how you light my heart,  
And I am so glad you do.

It is your sweet, tender care,
That does make my heart unlock.
Your heart does much more healing,    
Even than the herb burdock.            

You're a star without a doubt,
Brighter than the stars above:
Cast thy starlight upon me,
Caring friend with heart of love.

You're a jewel of great worth,  
Though you're not one for a ring:
Around my heart your caring love,
Is where I want it to cling.
I love how your eyes sparkle,
Heaven's stars sure love them too:    
Heaven's stars can't shine as bright,
As your eyes but would love to.

Heaven's stars want your eyes there,  
Lovelier heaven would view:
If they could shrink down in size,
They could shine on earth with you.


I love how your eyes sparkle,
They make your face brightly glow:          
Your sparkling eyes have beauty,
Day by day the more does show.      

How your eyes sparkle, I love,  
You they make me think more of.

Tire Tracks
Tire tracks laden the snow,
Would one in short time see:    
More snow and winter winds,
Where would they then have been?
As the road would look untouched,
A blanket of snow once more.
Sunbeams from your golden heart,
Make the world a brighter place.
There's a radiating glow,
The love in your heart, its base.

Unless stars learn how to shine,
Like you so spectacular,
They'll have, some competition,
As the brightest star you are.

Sweet peas and honeysuckle,
Have a fragrance very sweet:    
But your heart is much sweeter,  
Floral flowers cannot beat.

You're a friend to so many,
A great one of mine you are:
You're renowned in the heavens,
As being the brightest star.

Note how light from your bright smiles.
Makes jewels' prisms' so awesome:
It is your care and kindness,
My heart will always welcome.

Two Lips
Competing with the sunshine,
On your face two lips I find:
Your smiles shine forth very bright,
I love how there, they're designed.

Unlike tulips a flower,
Your lips give each pearly white:
A bit of golden luster,
An awesome sight of delight.

Your heart emits bright gold,
On your lips it is found there:
With gold of fourteen karats,
Gold miners wish they were there,

There they want to stake a claim,
Can't blame them, I'd do the same.

Clouds
Clouds form in different shapes,
They highlight, nature's landscapes,
Some are dark and some are white,
Times they're gorgeous, what delight.

They make scenes one won't forget,
Peach,, oranges, pinks, and yellows.
The clouds are surely needed,  
Times a masterpiece that glows.

If clouds were not in the sky,
Would our cisterns then go dry?
Dear Blessed Mother Mary,
Keep an eye on MaryAnne:  
The way you lived in holiness,
Show MaryAnne how she can.

Show Maey Anne how to live,
So she will please God each day:
Help her so she'll know God's will,
With wisdom, please guide her way.

To good use help her use time,
Ask God to give her his peace:  
Help her to find joys in life,
That will increase and not cease,

If her heart does get broken  
Whole ask Christ to make it be:  
Help her so she won't worry,  
And not have anxiety.

When we find life difficult,
Dear Lord, show us how to live:
Help us to be merciful,
Others help us to forgive.

In our hearts, your peace instill,
Lord, from sin help us be freed:
Fully help us live our lives:
Lord, help us to have no greed,

When life is disturbing, Lord,
Help us be gentle and kind:
When the storms of life are rough,
Peace then Lord, help us to find.

When we find our lives real rough,
Peace Lord help us find enough.
