Widen my Vision

Hi Everyone!

There is this poem that I’ve really liked for the longest time that I thought I’d share with you.  I’ll probably end up posting it in several places but I thought I’d start here.  I don’t know if it will mean as much to you as it does to me but any way, here it is…  Have a great day all:)!

Widen My Vision

God open my eyes so I may see

And feel your presence close to me…

Give me strength for my stumbling feet

As I battle the crowd on life’s busy street,

And widen the vision of my unseeing eyes

So in passing faces I’ll recognize

Not just a stranger, unloved and unknown,

But a friend with a heart that is much like my own…

Give me perception to make me aware

That scattered profusely on life’s thoroughfare

Are the best gifts of God that we daily pass by

As we look at the world with an Unseeing Eye
