"Computer Prayer"

Every night as I lie in bed,
This little prayer inside my head:
"God bless Me and You
And all the little Children too
And God there is just one more thing
I wish that you would do...
If you don't mind my asking
Would you bless my 'puter too?


I know it's not normal
To bless a small machine,
But listen just a second
And I will try to explain...
You see this little metal box
Holds more than odds and ends.
Inside those small components
Rest a hundred loving Friends.


Some its true I've never seen,
And most I've never met.
We've never shaken hands or
Ever truly hugged, and yet...
I know for sure they love me
By the kindness that 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 is okay with you,
Just take an extra minute
From all your duties up above
To bless this little hunk of steel
That's filled with so much Love."
