Prayer for A Day’s Walk

By Grace N. Crowell

 

God let me find the lonely ones

among the throng today

and let me say the word to take

the loneliness away;

so many walk with aching hearts

along the old highway.

 

So many walk with breaking hearts,

and no one understands;

they find the roadway rough and steep

across the barren lands;

God help me lighten weary eyes;

and strengthen nerveless hands.

 

God help me brighten dreary eyes,

and let my own grief be

a sure reminder of the grief

of those who walk with me.

When words fail-hands fail-let me go

in silent sympathy
