Thanks, Lord for your Commandments,
That help us to live in peace.
And help us to show concern,
For others so joys increase.

Thanks for the gift of prudence,
That wise helps us to become,
To live the way you want us,
For the good of your Kingdom.

Thanks, Lord, for the things we need,
To heal our hearts when they're ill.
In hearts when they're violent,  
Your peace in them, Lord instill.

When your help we're in need of,
Give it to us with your love.

Dear Lord, I'm very thankful,
For my good friend, Mary Anne,
Whose heart is warm and gentle,
Shining it bright as she can.

She's someone very thoughtful.
It's her heart that mine does prize.
She is a friend and angel.
This I've come to realize.

Help her heart remain caring.
Please help her heart always shine.
To me she's very special.
I'm glad she-s a friend of mine.

Lord, help her to do your will.
Help her maintain peace of mind.
Help her heart of TLC,
Always be one that is kind.

For the beauty of the heavens,
I give my thanks, dear Lord to Thee::
Crickets and frogs that play music.
Are a grand orchestra to me.

For the rippling streams of water,
Where I obtain my daily food:
Where animals come for water,
I am  thankful with gratitude.

For watercress that lives in streams
I collect to go with my meals:
When it's in a bright green color,
Its healthiness it then reveals.

For friends that I can confide in,
Thanks, dear Lord for sending my way:
When I find life dark and dismal,
They bring  sunshine into my day.

Most of all, Lord I am grateful,
For your love for me without end:
You  bring hope and joy in my life,
Lord, you are my forever friend.

Honeysuckle's sweet fragrance ,
Is not sweet as is your heart,
Your heart if in a bouquet,
Would sure top the beauty chart.

Rose bouquets have their beauty,
Some are overpowering,
But not as sweet as is your heart,
That is always flowering.

Orange blossoms have a fragrance,
That's prized and highly renowned.
Your heart excels their sweetness.
Your love in my heart is found.

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.

The limbs of weeping willows,
Hang over the redbud trees.
Pink flowers on the redbuds,
Are ones that are real beauties.

As gray clouds are divided,
The  sunlight, makes its way through;
The leaves then lean toward it,
As nature intends them to.

As wind whips limbs and branches,
Redbud petals whirl in air,
The ground will have  a carpet,
Of pink near the village square.

Friend, you have a sunshine heart,
That's always brightly shining.
When your love comes in my heart,
Beauty there it's designing.

Your heart has lots of sunshine,
It also has care and love,
Your heart is a rare treasure,
It's one I think highly of.

When your smiles reach the heavens,
Many stars they'll ricochet,
Then the stars will be spinning,
In a very lovely way.

Friend, keep a smile on your face,
And peace in your loving heart,
Always keep God in your heart,
And from him, friend, never part.  

When I need a friend, be there,
The way you so often do,
It is your heart so caring,
With much love I am drawn to.

Every day is glorious,
With sunshine that's from your heart;
When it makes its way in mine,
Much beauty, there, does impart.

My heart is open to yours,
So that, there, your love can dwell.
You're a friend, my heart treasures.
Your heart is one that's sure swell.

Profuse as stars in heaven,
Are kind things to me you say;
Joys in life you help me find,
In a very special way.

Friend, you make life glorious,
Making it victorious,

Hate causes hearts to be frozen,
Care and kindness they're in need of,
Frozen hearts will soon come to thaw,
When they receive sufficient love.

When someone's heart is frozen,
It needs to be softened with love.
Love has a way of thawing hearts,
To make them gentle like a dove.

Frozen hearts are in need of warmth
Loving hearts are able to give,
Frozen hearts at times hold grudges,
They'll start thawing when we forgive.

When frozen a heart then smarts,
It needs warmth from other's hearts.

When the sea of life gets stormy,
Making life difficult to live,
Gentleness can soon calm life's sea,
So life is easier to live.

The clench life's stormy sea does have,
Is severe and strong I am told;
Life's stormy sea will start to calm,
When gentleness in life takes hold.

Gentle Mother, Peaceful Dove,
Peaceful,  help me that I'll be.
In my life  loving kindness,
Help me, Mother soon to see.

Show me Mother how to find,
Life's joys in its dismal days.
Show me Mother how to love,
And give to God his due praise.

Help me to love my neighbors,
The way that God wants me to;
When I find life a burden.
Then to God help me be true,

Of you I think highly of,
Gentle Mother, Peaceful Dove.

Give Me Lord the Help I Need

Lord, give me the help I need,  
So that I can  do your will,      
Help my life, Lord be holy,              
In my heart your peace instill.

Help me live my life for you,
While on earth I'm still living:
To my friends and enemies,
Love, Lord, help me be giving.

What you're calling me to do,
Lord, it, help not postpone,
A life that's pleasing to you,
To me make it clearly known,  

Give me strength I need to live,
When it is hard to forgive.

Lord, give to me your wisdom
During times when my life smarts:
With a heart kind and gentle,
Show me how I'm to heal hearts.

When in life smarts I'm in need                      
During times when life is rough,        
Show me Lord how I'm to love,
In hearts help me sow enough.

Give me smarts Lord that I need,
That will make me someone wise,
So that I 'll strive for heaven
My eternal paradise.

Give me smarts, Lord, that I need,              
Light my heart with love I plead.
