MY PRAYER

That I may measure time by Truth unfolding,Not by the insecure and passing days;That I may know the law of Love is moldingThe garment of my life to shining praise;That I may hold no one to be my debtor,Because forgiveness is the loving way;That I may come to know the Father better—This is my prayer today and every day.

You cannot escapeThe law of Love.
