Prayer
There are a thousand
ways to pray
Visiting temples is
not the only way
The little bird that
sings so sweet
Praises God for the
day to greet
The small brook that
flows alone
Crossing hurdles of
weed and stone
Says a prayer in its
gurgling tone ~
The tree which
raises arms to the sky
Is grateful for its
fruits on high
I breathe this air
so pure and now
In thankfulness for
life I bow
The hands that
pray
Are blessed I see
Yet those that serve
More blessed by Thee
