When troubles in life start to brew,
Counsel us, Lord, what we should do
Lord, give us wisdom that we need,
Holy lives help us to pursue,

Tell us what you want us to do,
This request, Lord, we ask of you.
Lord, heal both our hearts and our minds,
And let our lives become anew.

Lord, help us to know right from wrong,
To your ways help us to belong:
Help us so we'll stay close to you,
Help our souls, Lord, to remain strong.

When our souls, rough times try to taint,
Then give us help to be a saint.

What do you get a lady,              
Who's a friend and a flower,
With her caring, loving heart,        
Many hearts she can empower.

She's someone who's an angel,
And is gentle as a dove,
It's her friendship I treasure,
And think very highly of.

A big box of chocolates,
And a fragrant rose bouquet,
These are things she would enjoy,
And would help to make her day.

Why not give a diamond
If she plays cards or baseball?
To let her know that I care,
I'll stop by or have a call.

I'll let her know she's treasured,
With friendship that means so much,
Speaking kind with TLC,
It's her heart I hope to touch.      

Whatever God wants for her,
I also want for her too,
I'll be blessed for doing this,
This is love that's really true.

Now that winter is over,
For months Jack Frost will be gone:        
Spring is now awakening,
Green is on the plants and lawn.

Yellow daffodils landscape,
The towns and the countryside:
Forsythia blossoming
Is a sight that's hard to hide.    

The cold days will get fewer,
And the warm days will get more:
The apple trees will blossom,
Just like years they have before.

There's no way I want to freeze,
Warm months I treasure the most:
Give me days when the sun shines,
So in the sun I can toast.

Lord,help me to love my foes.
And pray they'll find peace of mind.
At times when they aren't loving,
To them Lord help me be kind.

When they show bad examples,
Good ones then help me to show.
In their hearts when they're troubled,
Christ-like love help me to sow.

When they try to do what's right,
Sufficient strength, Lord, them give.
A life to you that's pleasing,
Courageously help them live.

Help my foes hearts come to be,
Touched by your love and mercy.



Give them the strength that they need
To help make their lives anew.
Help them, Lord, to do what's right,
And see best how to serve you.

Someday my friends they might be.
Help them, Lord, know what to do.
Blind, help them not be, dear Lord
Help them see how to please you.

When God was making flowers,
Did he then have you in mind?
He knew someday I'd meet you,
And zero in your heart kind.

When God made you a flower,    
Before your heart came to be,
At the time of conception,
Your  DNA he gave thee.

It gave you humanity,
No matter how small you were;
Time would not change who you are,
A scientific fact for sure.

You remained the same person.
In time you grew up in size.
In time I got to know you.
It is your friendship I prize.

Your heart can surely blossom,
More than floral flowers can.
Your heart has so much beauty,
That I treasure Mary Anne.

If your heart would have petals,

Your heart unfurls like a rose,
And it's never touched by frost,    
Bringing sunshine in my heart,
And doing it with no cost.

Your smiles are always welcome,
Your smiling has no curfew;
Friend, you have much TLC,
To your heart, mine is drawn to.      

Gold roses have much beauty,
Your heart has a pure grade gold;
It's when your heart opens up,
Warmth emits but never cold.

Flowers bloom and fade away,
And pearls people like to steal;
Your smiles have greater value,
Them, my friend, never conceal.

When we find life with burdens,      
Lord, life's load is hard to bear:      
During times such as these, Lord
Be sure to show us you care.        

When crosses weigh upon us,  
And we find life hard to live:
Then we need to be grateful,
When wisdom to us you give.          

When we find life a burden,            
Lighter help our lives to be:            
Joys to be found in our lives,              
Dearest Lord help us to see.                                        

When burdensome life we find,
Of life's joys, Lord, us remind.

Dear Lord, give me the wisdom,
That is needed to be wise.
Virtues I need to live by,
Don't let sin come to disguise.

Lord, help my heart be caring,
Also help my heart be kind.
The joys that are camouflaged,
In clear sight, them, help me find.

Loving, help my heart to be,
Help me know how I should live,
At times when I'm weak in life,
Give me the strength to forgive.

Understanding help me be,
Lord, give my heart sturdiness.
Help me, Lord, always strive for,
Holiness and gentleness.
