Thank You Lord, Poem by margaret haig

Thank You Lord,



Thank you Lord for teaching me, to others I should show care,
To let the lonely, the disabled, and poor, that I am there;
That You taught me don't make promises I can't keep at all,
From the old, to the young, from the big to the small.

Thank you Lord, For teaching me, don't hurt others any time,
But cheering up others when they want to tell me nothing is fine;
Help me learn to always show love and consideration. Too,
That breaking my promise to any, I'm doing it to You.

Thank you Lord, for Teaching me, to never show anger, when I feel cross,
It's hard Lord, to be let down, and they don't seem to care that I feel at a loss;
Of no friend or family, To come near. To visit, not even a phone call,
Help me not to do these things, but to be thoughtful to others to all.

Thank you Lord you teach me, I have to teach others to think before they speak,
To make promises you can't keep is just dont, makes your friendship weak;
And Lord. To think to give to others but not even to get a card given back,
Help me Lord, not to be a slothful uncaring person, cause my care is then slack.

Needs some work. Get the structure together, the lines should be roughly the same length, the too is forced in the second verse just to get the rhyme, don`t needs to be corrected, why is teaching in the upper case? So I would edit this, and try and work in some original elements.
