An Orphan Dog's Prayer I am an orphan dog with ears, big eyes, four feet and a tail Some of us were on the streets eating from garbage pails Abused by some rejected by most feeling scared and lost Needing to find someone to love no matter what the cost I stand in my cage eagerly waiting, hoping to see if someone will come to save and rescue me I'll do anything for attention, to make myself known I'm anxious to be chosen, for my forever home GOD touch their hearts to want me, help me pass the test patience is the key to build my trust and ease my stress help them teach me all I need to learn, I'll do my best to show them I'm worth the time, they must invest GOD gave me gifts of love and loyalty, that I'll freely give I'll love my family completely, for choosing me to live I don't care if they're rich or poor, I'll love them as they are Spending time with them, is healing salve for scars But GOD I'll understand, if you decide to call me home I know to be with you, is better than allowing me to roam I am just not meant to live a life unloved and all alone GOD please help me find a family of my very own If is not to be, then I'll leave my spirit in your care When I get to Heaven, maybe I'll find my family there I know you've heard my plea because you're everywhere So thank you GOD for listening to, my orphan dog's prayer
