A Thanksgiving Prayer Samuel E. Pugh
Oh, God, when I have food, help me to remember the hungry; When I have work, help me to remember the jobless; When I have a warm home, help me to remember the homeless; When I am without pain, help me to remember thos who suffer; And remembering, help me to destroy my complancency and bestir my compassion. Make me concerned enough to help, by word and deed those who cry out for what we take for granted.
