O' Humble Lord


O’ Lord, you taught humility by becoming man
O’ Lord, you taught humility by enduring and suffering on the Cross
O’ Lord, you taught humility by forgiving your persecutors
O’ Lord, grant to me the courage to be humble

O’ Lord, you taught humility by washing the feet of your disciples
O’ Lord, you taught humility by doing your work in a quiet way
O’ Lord, your taught humility by praying to your Father
O’ Lord, grant to me the fruits of humility; peace and freedom.

My Special Wife

Her heart is pure
I know for sure
An angel on earth
Is my Joanne.

Daily she faces pain
Without complaint
For the Lord is near
Helping with her fears.

She has no career
No university degree
Yet her wisdom inspires
Angela, Peter and me.
