Gifts To Find

From each day of life on earth,
Learn to find a gift of mirth;
From the days when things go wrong,
Find a smile or prayerful song.
Tears of anguish-rants of ire-
Will not change what has transpired.


Find a faith-to faith renew-
From each day your passing through;
Find a touch of peace and grace
From the days that griefs embrace.
Let no cloud of past dismay
Dim your sunshine today.



What is done-or means to be-
Will not change with woeful plea;
Hopes and dreams that time estranged-
Hate and anger will not change.
Learn to find some love each day,
In the time you find to pray.
