Oh God
A Poem by Manoj J Lekhi (Amrut Vivek)
Give me the strength to be honest
Honest to myself
Honest to others
Honest to be only ‘one faced’
Oh God!
Give me the courage to live by truth
Truth and only truth
Be true to myself
And be humbly straight-forward
Oh God!
Give me the enthusiasm to serve everyone
For service is only my life
Service is what I stand for
Service is what I would die for
Oh God!
Give me all the time in the world
All the time to love
Love one and all
And spread love wherever and everywhere
Oh God!
Give me the presence of mind
Not to hurt anyone’s feelings
Or not to do any such thing which disturbs someone
Oh God!
I have asked you so many things already
And know that you have granted me all
It’s upto me to wake up and live what you have given me
Thank you for all the above gifts.
