Here I stand on this beautiful land,

I can look at the sky and know

It was not made with human's hand.

We were born with two hands and two feet,

The Lord supplied food for us to eat.



When we lay down to sleep at night,

We can thank the Lord for the stars so bright.

Every morning when we rise and are awake,

We should thank the Lord for every step we take.




We all have to go out and make a living, but

We can thank the Lord for the strength He is giving.

Our Lord is always Merciful to take us back,

When we a mistake and get on the wrong track.




We should love our children very much.

Let them know we will have a tender touch,

Our children are given to us for a short while,

So we should always greet them with a smile.



I know the Lord's plans are better than mine,

So I Pray that I will please Him, and never get out of line.

He is my Creator, There is None than is Greater.

So let's be Good to each other,

Treat them like they are our brother.



Let's Pray for Guidance

We should Pray everyday, not just on Sunday.

I Pray that everyone will meet Him at the gate,

And He won't have to say, "You're Too Late."
