My Hands Are Folded <br /> <br /> <br />my hands are folded in supplication <br />I need your help, i need to relax <br />i need calm, rest, light, peace <br />courage, forgiveness <br /> <br />my hands are folded <br />i bow down to my only Saviour <br />my anchor of safety <br />my harbor of protection <br />my heaven of peace <br /> <br />my eyes look up to you <br />with confidence, with hope <br />i come as one sick <br />to his physician <br />as one poor and needy <br />to the Lord of heaven and earth <br /> <br />grant that i may see you <br />in all things <br />in good and ill health <br />in joy as in sorrow <br /> <br />grant me oh Lord <br />the grace to accept with patience <br />the monotony of daily tasks <br />to embrace with resignation <br />the fatigue and exhaustion <br />of days too long and too full <br />for my physical strength <br /> <br />grant me the ability to be relaxed <br />and be calm in the thought of your love <br />to find rest in the assurance <br />that you are with me <br />always and forever...Amen<br /><br />Meggie Gultiano<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-hands-are-folded/
