IF

If I wake as the sun comes out
If my boys start to scream and shout
If my daughter decides to pout
I will praise the Lord

If gas goes up another 10 cents
If my brother calls to make amends
If today I make two new friends
I will praise the Lord

If my mother calls that dad is ill
If I choose to exercise my free will
If the entire world for a second stood still
I will praise the Lord

I will praise the Lord no matter what
He should be praised, there’s no if or but
Whether life is glorious or I’m in a rut
I will praise the Lord

And when my spirit leaves this place
I pray I’d followed my Savior’s ways
So that I can see Him face to face
As I praise my Lord

    You say:
    “If today I make TWO friends
    I will praise the Lord.”

    Well, you’ve made one today (me :D )
    You’ve just got one more to go!!!!!

    Pax Christi,
