On Monday he gave me the gift of grace,
On Tuesday peace came from above,
On Wednesday he told me to have more faith,
On Thursday he gave me just a little more grace.
On Friday he told me to watch and pray,
On Saturday told me just what to say,
On Sunday gave me the gift divine,
Just to let my little light shine. |
