The Gift Of Being One


 This photo and the one below were taken in Viet Nam. The children there have such beautiful spirits. The adults too. 

The Prayer below is a prayer that was sung at the end of every performance by the chorus at my high school in 1970 (the year I graduated) and I'm sure before and after that too.

The Prayer

Grant us a common faith
that we shall know the gift of being one,

The death of prejudice,
and the new birth of love.

May the seeds of righteousness come forth
from the common soil of our labors,

nourished by the rains of justice
and the warmth of security,

That a harvest of freedom of opportunity
may come for people throughout the world.

Grant us a common faith
that we shall know the gift of being one.

Amen




Big hug to you!
