Flower-arrangers' prayer
May God grant that our hearts
Our eyes and our hands may
Receive this inspiration
Enabling us to glorify
His house with the beauty
Of the leaves and blossoms
Which he has created.
Among the unsung heroines
Who grace this world of ours
Are those who give and who arrange
Their church's lovely flowers.
I wonder if they realise
The pleasure that they bring
To people who will gather there
To worship and to sing.
Or the warm friendship that they send
When given to those who can't attend?
