Our Thoughts And Prayers Are With You…


 


Our thoughts and prayers are


 with the officers who’ve fallin.’


They served a higher duty.


  A higher callin.’


 


We pray that God will speak


 his love to their families too.


We are thankful for them and love


 them for all they do…


 


Much thanks and gratitude


 have already been given…


They brought duty and honor


 in the way they were livin.’


 


We ask you Lord…


 to give  them more of your grace


May your light shine on them and keep


 them in a special place!


 


We don’t clearly know why things


 happened that particular day…


Through the sorrow.  We ask God to make a way.


 


A way that will make


 his goodness very certain.


To the many lives of those who are hurtin.’


 


May you dear Lord, touch the hearts


 of the Lakewood police.


And grant unto them a double


 portion of your peace…


 


We’re forever grateful for their


 service and dedication…


And give to them this poem with


 a heart of appreciation!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
