'Lord, help us to realize how brief our time on earth will be.
Help us to know that we're here for a moment more.
Our life is no longer than our hands.
And so Lord... let my hope be in You.'
Dear GOD,
We've seen many deaths
From war and famine, nature and all sorts of questions
Our life is fleeting, and like paper it goes back to the earth
Our breath has limit
Our body grows old
Our cells stop; everything to a halt.
Only your love endures
And good memories each of us has lived.
Let us see the purpose for why we live
Let us make something beautiful before we die
And maybe unknown to others,
Search our offerings in different attempts
Help us understand you in all that we do
Help us understand others and their needs
'Spare us, Lord! Let us recover and
be filled with happiness again before death.'
Send forth your wisdom and love
So shall we be happy! So shall I be happy!
Thank you, dear Father.
St. Peter, pray for us.
