(Prologue:

Dear Heavenly Father
thankful to come to thee
each day – each moment
every nano-second known
knowing that thou art
and of thy Son is too
finding the presence
of the Holy Ghost
doing thy will as ours
obediently to commands
full and clear to understand
speaking now with thee!)

(1)

Grateful for this very life
able to partake the test
finding if to be obedient
enduring to the as such
given this agency free
understanding little rest
grateful this life to live!

(2)

Grateful the air to breathe
as a mind remembers all
gulping fresh air quickly
upon entering mortality
leaving a crowded room
coming out the deep water
needful of what is there
grateful to breathe air!

(3)

Grateful of companionship
having loved ones about
within and without family
embracing all thy Gospel
to thee willingly serve
understanding warmth
brothers/sisters all about
companionship of thy spirit!

(4)

Grateful able to be repentant
coming on to thee in prayer
confessing our transgressions
needing your forgiveness
seeking advice to improve
learning to forgive others
knowing thy Son to share
to become more like thee!

(5)

Grateful to announce/report
beginning or ending of day
knowing with thy assistance
all things possible for us
listening to the still voice
promptings for us to obey
this the only course to stay
coming unto thee to report!

(Epilogue:

Grateful for thy love of me
granting me this eternal test
for sacrificing thee Son
that I too may thus live
that all who come to thee
may too be able to live
eternal life giving to all
who endure to the end
in full obedience to thee;

In the name of thy
Beloved Son – our Lord
and our Savior
Jesus Christ – amen!)
