Let Me Be Humble

Let me be humble

Not too proud to say I'm wrong

Let me avoid labeling those who contest me

As rascals or clowns.

__

 

Let me be humble

And not fret and fume in situations

In which I am confronted

By others of different persuasion.

__

 

Let me be humble

To see other points of view

Let me be more like a sponge than a rock

So my ideas and spirit can renew.

__

 

Let me be humble

And never become livid

When others tell me what they think

Let me not scold or punish them for being candid.

__

 

Let me be humble

And not think I am always right

Let me hear the other side

Without getting uptight.

__

 

Let me be humble

Before my days are gone

It is more important to be loving

Than it is to be right or wrong.

__

 

Let me be humble

And realize for all I have said and done

I am one of 8 billion

I am just one.

Let me be humble!
