Give Me Courage
Give Me Courage
Lord, give me the courage to hope
With all travails I can always cope;
The courage not to harshly judge others -
All human beings my sisters and brothers.
Lord, the courage to correct my mistakes -
Face up to my faults, whatever it takes.
Give me the courage not to respond to hate -
Laugh it off and learn not to retaliate.
Lord, may I have courage when the end is near -
To exit this world with a smile not a tear.
