THANK YOU, DEAR LORD

LORD, GIVE ME THE GRACE THAT I DO NOT SPILL

ONE MORE DROP OF YOUR BLOOD BY NOT DOING YOUR WILL.

GIVE ME THE GRACE, LORD, TO ENDURE ALL THE PAIN

THAT THE GIFTS YOU ARE GIVING WOULD NOT BE IN VAIN.

LET ME NOT WASTE, LORD, ONE SINGLE THORN

THAT I SHARE FROM THE CROWN THAT FOR ME YOU HAVE WORN.

I ACCEPT ALL YOU’RE GIVING AND WITH YOU I NOW SHARE

THIS SMALLEST SLIVER OF THE CROSS YOU DID BEAR.
