another day

Lord thank you for another day
within this life of mine
give me the strength to live it well
whatever i may find

bestow from your abundance
whatever i may lack
to use the hours wisely
for i cannot have them back

Lord thank you for another day
in which to make amends
for little slights or petty words
inflicted on my friends

for sometimes losing patience
with problems that i find
for seeing fault in other lives
but not the ones in mine

Lord thank you for another chance
in which to try to be
a little more deserving
of the gifts You've given me

for yesterday is over.. and tomorrow's far away.. and i remain committed to the good i do today.
