PLEASE
Please give me bravery to smile each day,
Please give me honor to not look away.
Please give me hope by which to live,
Please give me strength to not take, but give.
Please give me pride so I can be proud of me,
Please give me friends who dont judge what they see.
Please give me openness to smile at all,
Please give me strength to rise after I fall.
Please give me the will to do all I can,
Please give me the heart to love who I am.
Because it's only when I have all these virtues, you see,
That I can make peace with those around me.
