Make me a good receiver, Lord,
And make me truly see
That loving gifts from friendly hearts
Are blessings sent from Thee.
Make me a good receiver, Lord,
And in receiving find
A way to open channels
For those whose hearts are kind,
So that the good that they pass on
To me so lovingly
May bring them greater blessings, Lord,
For having shared with me.
—Theodosia Smith.
