Glory, Praise, And Honor Poem by Carmela Patterson

Glory, Praise, and Honor
Be upon our minds, lips and hearts
For ever and ever!

O Father, thank you and Praise you
For every Gift you lovingly give;
May Glory, Praise, and Honor, too
Be on our lips for as long as we live!

When I am tired and weary
Whining and teary
Bemoaning my fate of late,
Help me to see it's not about me
But about my neighbor
Through whom Thee I see.

Bless my neighbor with all that is needed;
Permit me to provide it if possible.
Let no word you speak to me go unheeded
And all required of me be plausible.

Permit me to be an emissary for you
Someone who carries out your will;
May the words I say and deeds I do
Your most Holy Will fulfill.

It isn't easy to always tow the line
Who knows better than you, my Lord,
Who bore our sin, your Cross the sign
Upon us may your graces be poured.

O Father, thank you and Praise you
For every Gift you lovingly give;
May Glory, Praise, and Honor, too
Be on our lips for as long as we live!

Glory, Praise, and Honor
Be upon our minds, lips and hearts
For ever and ever!
