Lord, We Pray!
Lord,
you give some cows long horns.
To others no horns at all.
You have a plan for every cow.
You have a plan for each one of us too.
Help us to be open to your plan.
That way we can truly be happy.
Lord,
you have the yam and the knife.
We have no yam.
Nor the knife.
We depend on you.
Unless you give us the yam,
we will have none.
So we beg you
provide us with what we need.
Lord,
you give beard to goats.
But to cows no beard.
You know what everyone needs.
You know what we need.
We trust you will give us
what we truly deserve.
