I remember him

He was so beautiful. I'll always remember him. He was so beautiful like the morning of that day.
 beautiful he was when we were alone
 we never met after because the night took him away
 everything like a secret was left behind in the light
 his lips hands face full of tears maybe it's best time you raise it all the pain
 but still often too often too often I remember him
 daily the rain is falling by the park
 I stand alone 
memory came over me 
I remember the morning of all the sorrow
 I remember the night with it he went away
 He was so beautiful like the morning of that day
 beautiful he was when we were alone 
we never met after that because the day took him away

An Understanding Heart

 Therefore give to Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people, that I may discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours?

1 Kings 3:9
 
The death of President Franklin Roosevelt abruptly thrust Harry Truman into the presidency. He traveled to Capitol Hill to address Congress, and at the end of his speech he said: “As I have assumed my heavy duties, I humbly pray Almighty God, in the words of King Solomon: ‘Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people, that I may discern between good and bad; for who is able to judge this thy so great a people?’ I ask only to be a good and faithful servant of my Lord and my people.”
