A Computer Prayer
| Every night I lie in bed, |
| This little prayer inside my head. |
| God bless mom and dad and the children too, |
| And God there's just one more thing I'd like to ask you -- |
| If you don't mind, please bless my computer too? |
| Now I know that it's not normal to bless a small machine. |
| But listen just a second and I'll try to explain what I mean. |
| You see that little metal box holds more than odds and ends, |
| Inside those small components rest a hundred loving friends. |
| Some it's true I've never seen, and most I've never met. |
| We've never shaken hands or hugged except in cyberspace and yet, |
| I know for sure they love me by the kindnesses they give |
| And this little scrap of metal is how I get to where they live. |
| By faith is how I know them, much the same as I know you. |
| A share of life brings them close to me so if it's OK with you. |
| Just take an extra minute from your duties up above |
| To bless this little hunk of steel that's filled with so much love. |
