Let Me

Let me share your love with all the world.
Let me never bring you shame.
Let me live my life praising you,
Not seeking someone to blame,
For all the woes that come to me
Are gifts that help me change.

My problems aren’t the problem,
My attitude toward them is.
For problems show my weaknesses
And provide the spiritual grist
To grow in love and enlightenment,
Not merely to exist.
