Another day is closing.
Time's Hourglass is spent.
Evening's drawing nigh upon
This day our Father lent.

Spent we time with Father,
Communing with sweet intimacy,
List'ning for that still small voice ~
Gently guiding you and me?

Did we reach out to others,
Sharing ~ Caring ~ Giving;
Love that speaks a thousand tongues,
Offences soon forgiving?

Did we spend the Sands of Time
In idle occupation
Or build a bridge of friendship,
Reaching to another nation?

Did we help a stranger
Their precious dream unfold,
Share the music of their soul
Or leave their story yet untold?

Did we share compassion's touch
With that one who feels alone
Because they face an empty chair
Of that loved one who is gone?

Did we do our very best
Or have we deep regrets?
Did we leave our heart prints
With those life oft' too soon forgets?

Another day is ending.
Was it spent unselfishly?
Father, help us to remember
To share the LOVE of Thee !
