A Trucker’s Prayer

Dear God Above,

Bless this truck I drive and help me keep someone alive.  Be my mortal sight this day, on street where little children play.  Bless my helper fast asleep, when the night is long and deep.  And keep my cargo safe and sound, though hours long around.

Make my judgement sound as steel and be my hands upon the wheel.  Bless the traveler going past and teach him not to go so fast.  Give me strength for every trip, so I may care for what they ship.

And keep me mindful every mile, that life is just a little while.

Amen
