THE WOMEN PREFORM A SIMPLE TASK. THE MEEK AND HUMBLE FIND JOY IN A SIMPLE TASK

Oh! Must I look ahead
  Only to the means
Of filling my body
  With bread and wine?

 Is there not
  A more noble cause
For this being to live
  The rest of my earthly time?

Surely there must be
  Such a cause! 
Will You help me God
  To find and apply it?

You will!
  How wonderful!
I await in awe
  For this simple task.

So it will be said
  When these bones are put to rest,
Here lies (insert your name),
  Whom God used in a simple task.

Praise You my God,
  All glory be Yours 
Forever and evermore
  My Lord and my God.
