WAIT IN PRAYER
Be open handed as you wait in prayer
Receive from God the gifts He sends,
Through those who care for you, your family and friends,
Accept each offering and all the love we share.
Be open handed as you minister to those
Who travel hopefully the path to life.
Share joyfully God's Word with those who suffer strife,
And His redeeming love will draw each person close.
For love that's kept for us alone
Will cooler grow and surely die.
Pass God's Word on, His love will multiply
And bring us all to live in our eternal home.
It opens up our hearts to understand another's pain
Confirming us in fellowship and love again.
