AS I GROW OLD by ANONYMOUS

First Line: GOD KEEP MY HEART ATTUNED TO LAUGHTER
Last Line: AS I GROW OLD
Subject(s): AGING;PRAYER;

God keep my heart attuned to laughter
When youth is done;
When all the days are gray days, coming after
The warmth, the sun.
Ah! keep me then from bitterness, from grieving,
When life seems cold;
God keep me always loving and believing
As I grow old.
