Prayerfully Poetic

A Collection of Prayerful Poems by Tim McGee

AMDG

In every step, in every stride,
AMDG, our noble guide,
Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam,
For God’s greater glory, our heart’s hymn.

In every task, both great and small,
We heed the whisper of the call,
To lift our deeds, our thoughts, our aim,
In service of a higher flame.

For in the depths of every soul,
There lies a spark that seeks its role,
To shine amidst the darkest night,
And bring forth truth, and love, and light.

With faith our unwavering shield,
And courage our steadfast yield,
We march along the path divine,
Where AMDG’s bright banners shine.

In every trial, every test,
We find our strength, our peace, our rest, For in the shadow of the cross, We count all gain, count all as loss.

So let us strive, let us aspire,
To set our hearts and minds on fire,
In all we do, in every story,
For AMDG, Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam.

    Words of wisdom. Unusually accurate metric rhyme, too. Great write.
