Mother Of Honesty

 Mother Of Honesty

by Paul McCann

 

Mother of honesty

there are people who are witness to honesty

 in the things they do .

Give them the ability to bring change in the world

by their point of view .

Mother of honesty

there’s a richness about people in poverty

 that is honest and true .

May they remind us of the values we set

 in this life we’re going through .

Mother Of Insults

Mother Of Insults

by Paul McCann

 

Mother of insults

deflect the words that are sent 

like daggers into the heart .

Restore the peace of mind

that insults tried to rip apart .

 

Mother of insults

 turn our thoughts away from the angry words

that were spoken

and repair the  damage to good hearts  

that have been  broken.

 

Mother of insults

don’t let us be affected by those

who are insulting

and allow healing to bring

an on going  consulting .

 

Mother of insults

 grant us the strength to overcome

the terrible things said

and may we always find words of kindness

and love instead .

Mother Of Dreams

 

 Mother Of Dreams

By Paul McCann


Mother of dreams

some hear music which

is a gift and is their life’s calling .

 

Mother of dreams

some can see the colour

in the raindrops that are falling .


Mother of dreams

Some would try to steal the gifts

that others have been given .


Mother of dreams

and interfere with the way of life

that they are living .


Mother of dreams

encourage all the dreamers

who hear music in their head .


Mother of dreams

walk beside them on the

hard road where angels

fear to tread .


Mother of dreams

protect their inspirations

from being lost and destroyed.


Mother of dreams

protect the gifts of others

and the life that they’ve enjoyed .

and the concerns every new Mother has to face

Mother Of Thoughts

 

Mother Of Thoughts
By Paul McCann

Mother of thoughts
you are always there in my mind
every now and then and where and when
guiding me and watching over me .

Mother of thoughts
grant me the grace to distinguish
all of the thoughts that are meant for me
and those that need to let me be ,

Mother of thoughts
help me to control those thoughts
that sweep over me in a storm
trying to drown me in a cruel way .

Mother of thoughts
when the troubles of life come
be in my thoughts so I would know
that you are there to help me everyday .

Mother of thoughts
prevent the thoughts that don’t belong to me
and need to be sent on their way
never to return again .

Mother of thoughts
I am grateful that you are there
in my thoughts and on my mind
from the very first moment that they came .

.Mother Of Encouragement  

By Paul McCann

 

Mother of encouragement

 you listen to all the prayers we’ve said

and support all of those who have prayed .

You understand what we’re going through

and help those who have recourse to you .

 

 

Mother of encouragement

life has many challenges for sure

your encouragement helps us endure  

all of the hard times that come our way 

whenever we come to you and pray ..

 

Mother of encouragement

when angry words are thrown like a fist

I found you’re always there to assist .

I could never ask for anymore .

than the support you’ve shown me  before .

 

Mother of encouragement

Your mercy and love it has no end

I’m encouraged by the help you send

How can I thank you , what can I say

Help me find the words when I pray .

Mother Of Authority

Mother Of Authority

By Paul McCann

 

Mother of authority

remove from my mind

any distraction that would prevent

my thinking from being true .

 

  Mother of authority

divide and conquer any presence that would

try to keep me at a distance from you .

 

Mother of authority

create an opening to show all those

with evil plans and stop them from doing so .

 

 

Mother of authority

you command heavens power ,

Come down on the earth

just so everyone would know .
