Poet: John McLeod, (c)1982
Who shall we help today, my friends,
Who shall we help today?
A poor-man passing in the road
A word to ease his way?
A kindly thought, a friendly deed
A smile so freely given?
These are the treasures all may give
These are the keys to heaven!
Who shall we help today, my friends,
Who shall we help today?
A sad soul in distress perhaps?
Kneel with that soul and pray;
Show him the love our Father showed
In the way His son was given:
These are the gifts all have to give,
These are the keys to heaven!
Who shall we help today, my friends,
Who shall we help today?
The lame, the sick, all those in need?
So much that one can say
And do to help another's pain
In love's compassion given,
Yours is the gift of giving, friend,
Yours are the keys to heaven!
What we become is
our gift to God."
Louis Nizer
Poet: John McLeod
Write these few words
And then put down the pen,
Briefly, I hope, before I write again,
Surely to find in days that are to be
Nearer in service my dear Lord to Thee!
Look to the light
And in your searching friend,
Know that His love will guide to journey's end,
Open your eyes there is so much to see
Nearer in service, my dear Lord to Thee!
Into each heart
Let joy of living spring,
And with a gentle word some kindness bring,
Yours is the gift of giving, choice quite free,
Nearer in service, my dear Lord to Thee!
by Catherine Pulsifer
No matter the person,
Or the obsession,
A bag of tools,
Is given with lesson.
Ever person,
Who walks with life,
Needs some tools,
To help get through strife.
Tools to help get through,
Conflicts and addictions.
Tools come in handy,
And help with restrictions.
With conflict the best tool,
Is to find a resolution.
With problems the best tool,
Is to find the solution.
With your unhappiness the best tool,
Is to change your situation.
With someone else's unhappiness,
Help them see their blessings.
With feelings of exhaustion,
Is to stop and take care.
When you lose faith,
Take time to say a little prayer.
With every issue,
You have a helping hand.
That will lead you the right way,
Just let God be part of the plan .
Poet: Augustus Wright Bamberger
There's a part of the sun in the apple,
There's a part of the moon in a rose;
There's a part of the flaming Pleiades
In every leaf that grows.
Out of the vast comes nearness;
For the God whose love we sing
Lends a little of His heaven
To every living thing.
by Roy Helton
On these electric branches
The lightnings of the sun
Shall smite as Moses smote the rock
And tides of life shall run.
The miracles of April
God's first and fairest were.
The wonders of the earth are things
Which constantly occur.
unless inside, where no man sees, your very soul is kneeling too. "
Mary L. O'Hara
