When I wake Lord remind me of the poor
The poor who need my help
When I eat Lord remind me of the poor
The poor who have insufficient food, shelter and clothing
When I drive Lord remind me of the poor
The poor who must walk for hours to worship You
When I work Lord remind me of the poor
The poor who must toil for less than a living wage
When I play Lord remind me of the poor
The poor who take joy in small pleasures I take for granted
When I breathe Lord remind me of the poor
The poor who will die without someone to help
The poor who I must help,
The poor who belong to You
The poor who are our brothers and sisters
The poor of St. Laurent
Amen.
