CHANGE ME TO BE THE PERSON, LORD YOU DESIRE ME TO BE.  I KNOW IF I'M CHANGED, I'LL LIVE A LIFE THAT'S FREE.
CHANGE ME TO BE THE PERSON, TO BE PLEASING IN YOUR SIGHT.  GET RID OF ALL WRONG, AND HELP ME TO DO WHAT'S RIGHT.
CHANGE ME TO BE THE PERSON, THAT YOU CAN SMILE UPON.  ALLOW ME TO HAVE UNITY, TOWARDS EVERYONE.
CHANGE ME TO BE THE PERSON, WITH A HUMBLE MIND.  REMOVE EVERYTHING THAT'S EVIL, AND TEACH ME TO BE KIND.
CHANGE ME TO BE THE PERSON, SO FILLED WITH LOVE.  HELP ME NOT SHY AWAY, FROM GIVING THE HOMELESS A HUG.
CHANGE ME TO BE THE PERSON, THE ENTIRE WORLD WILL RESPECT.  MAY I HAVE AN ATTITUDE, NOT TO GET PEOPLE UPSET.

TO MY FACE BOOK FAMILY, YOU HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THERE.  EVEN WHEN I LOST MY SISTER NEXT TO ME, YOU REALLY SHOWED ME THAT YOU CARED.
TO MY FACE BOOK FAMILY, I TREASURE YOUR PLEASANT WORDS.  EVEN WHEN I WRITE MY POEMS, YOU LET ME KNOW MY VOICE IS HEARD.
TO MY FACE BOOK FAMILY, YOU WERE THERE, WHEN I NEEDED YOU MOST.  EVEN THE SPIRITUAL PART OF MY LIFE, I FELT GOD'S HEAVENLY HOST.
TO MY FACE BOOK FAMILY, LET'S CONTINUE TO ELUMINATE OUR LOVE.  LET'S GET RID OF ALL HATRED, BY INCLUDING GOD ABOVE.
TO MY FACE BOOK FAMILY, CELEBRATE MY NEW YEAR'S BIRTHDAY, SOME WHERE ON YOUR KNEES.  AFTER YOU HAVE FINISHED, GO OUT AND DO A GOOD DEED.

Another year has come and gone, and its trials and test.  In spite  of what we've been through, it brought out our best.
There are no need to go through anything, if you are not going to change.  We can gain much strength and wisdom, as our lives are rearranged.
From January to December, so much has taken place.  It was only by the help of God, we are still alive by His Grace.
There are people like friends and loved ones, who are no longer here.  God has allowed us to keep standing, to the last day of the year.  
May we all look forward, to a year of something new.
Remember you can make a difference, in all you say and do.

Whatever you do in life, do it from the heart.  It's up to you to take heed, not allowing these words to depart.
Whatever you do in life, don't get things half done.  Even if you take your time, doing it one by one.
Whatever you do in life, there's no need to be sloppy.  Even allow your clothes to look neat, make sure your socks are not floppy.
Whatever you do in life, always do your best.  It's not good to settle for anything, and refuse to take anything less.
Whatever you do in life, stand up and walk tall.  Whatever you decide to do, give it your all in all.

We send our healthy strong men and women, out to fight a War.  They pack all their bags, prepared to travel far.
After they began to fight in the War, things are no longer the same.  To Protect and Serve our Country is the reason why they came.
They see so much tragedy, and things that are unreal.  Everyday they look into the faces, of those who are killed.
When our men and women return back home, they are not the same.  Some have been known, not to remember their name.
These men and women, deserve the highest of our respect.  We need to help them in every way, and refrain from getting them upset.

Today, all we see is fighting on our T.V.  People hold in so much anger; fighting seem to set them free.
Fighting is not the answer, you can end up right in jail.  Because of making the wrong decision, someone has to pay your bail.
Don't be eager to show-off, and began to fight.  Refrain from staying in darkness, get help to come to the light.
To watch people on the News fighting, bring shame to the ones they love.  It would look a whole lot better, to see them shake hands, and give each other a hug.

Now it's a New Year, change the look on your face.  Cheer up anyone, no matter the race.
Cheer up that special one, who walks with a hung down head.  Especially, the ones in the corner, looking like they're dead.
Cheer up your family, bring joy into your home.  No one should feel they can't fit in, therefore, leaving them alone.
Cheer up your children, stop constantly fussing them out.  Show  them that you can be kind, and you know how to speak right.
Cheer your Mother and Father, after they have been fighting all day.  Perhaps, you can bring them together, so they can began to pray.
