A Pumpkin Prayer

Father in heaven, like a farmer, you have watched me grow

And picked me out from all the rest to house your light and glow.

Open my mind to think of you. Open my mouth to sing. Open my eyes to see your world and share the joy you bring.

Open my heart to be your home-a warm and welcome shell,

Washed clean of sin. A place wherein your love and light may dwell.

Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works

and give glory to your Father in heaven.

Matthew 5:16
