Watch them sleeping there
In the fading embers of this day
I think of all the many ways
That You were here with us today
And I say a prayer, goodnight
For faces like a soft surprise
For talks of toys and excited cries
And the promise of those tender cries
I say a prayer, a grateful prayer tonight
And for this place to rest my feet again
I want to thank You
For family prayers and evening meals
For hopes and hugs and knees that heal
For all these wonders that I feel.
Became aware not for the first time recently that Kevin had not begun the day as normally I should.
The car journey was the starting place of further prayers, for safety common sense, and travelling mercy's. The food l ate, people l would be meeting, communications, conversations, encounters, So often they filled my prayer life along with issues of this troubled community, society, and the induvial placed among.
Not been shining my light nor have l presented the best image of me. Two gone hand in hand, prayer life, who l should be. Words and writings are not enough.
Getting my act together by getting to my knees.
It's in the dirt on a farmer's hands
His blood and sweat are in that plant
Sure could use a little rain
Down every road in every town
All the lost, all the found
To Him, we're all the same
Oh, everybody needs one
Say a prayer for me when you're down
On your knees tonight (Remember me)
