A Christmas Prayer
On this glad day God grant that we may find
The good which we have missed in other men;
To their small faults and errors make us blind,
Show us the way to help them—not condemn.
Give us the grace to realize that we
Are not from imperfections wholly free.
Grant that we cheer each other on the way
When it seems dark and Doubt would question “Why?”
Help us to find contentment day by day
To live with courage—and fear not to die,
Give us a strong man's strength to fight—and then
A child's pure heart for evermore! Amen.

Give us a strong man's strength to fight—and then
A child's pure heart for evermore! Amen.
