Dear Lord

 

Give me, Lord, the mind to discern.

Break me from habit and pattern.

Forgive me, Lord, as I’m still stubborn.

Show me your kindness to ease my concern.

 

Lead me, Lord, the path of your will.

Show me that you re my God still.

It’s your purpose I need to fulfill.

Give me courage to conquer this hill.

 

Hold me, Lord, tenderness in your care.

As I stumble and fall, let me know you’re there.

The burden’s so heavy; I myself can’t bear.

Please rescue me from this mad nightmare.

 

Teach me, Lord, the depth of your prayer.

Enlighten me to the plan that’s higher.

Help me to subdue my wrath of anger.

Cleanse my ill thoughts that I can be better.

 

Grant me, Lord, the peace of your love,

As your spirit descends like a dove.

Keep me faithful when push comes to shove.

Cover me with sweet grace from above.
