                 Promise


I made a solemn promise to my father up above,
This almighty, heavenly spirit who’s blessed me with his love.
Always I’d remember where my happiness begins,
And give him thanks, every day, for taking on my sins.
I’d try to live his wishes, being kind in every way,
And hold a conversation with him each and every day.
Not to turn my nose up, but to use a smile instead,
And every night before I sleep, I’d bow my weary head.
Thanking him for my blessings and the trials even so,
While I would encounter them, I’d wonder where I’m to go.
Then right before I’d close my eyes, finally to rest,
A peaceful feeling in my heart just knowing I am blessed.
For I am one of God’s children, heeding to his word,
I know that my father loves me and my prayers are always heard.

Beautifully done.  I like the way this reads . . . nice and easy.
