A Little Less of Me

Let me be a little kinder, let me be a little blinder
To the faults of those about me, let me praise a little more.
Let me be when I am weary, just a little but more cheery,
Think a little more of others and a little less of me.

Let me be a little braver when temptation bids me waver,
Let me try a little harder to be all that I should be.
Let me be a little meeker with the brother who is weaker,
Let me think more of my neighbor and a little less of me.

Let me be when I am weary, just a little bit more cheery,
Let me serve a little better those who I am striving for,
Let me be a little meeker with the brother who is weaker,
Think a little more of others and a little less of me.

Let me be when I am weary, just a little bit more cheery,
Think a little more of others and a little less of me.

I know this song was written in the 60s, but the message means so much to me today. This weekend, I am speaking at a ladies luncheon on "The Tie That Binds Us." Can you imagine how much God could use a group of ladies who followed Philippians 2:1-4 and the words of this song?
May God truly give me a heart that strives to think a little more of others and a little less of me.
