O LORD MAKE ME STRONG lyrics
by JOEL SATTLER

O Lord
make me strong
let me love life
my whole life long

let me be willing
to do thy will
and be forgiving
even still

yea though I walk
the lonesome valley
and down the dark
forbidding alley

let me be brave
to face the night
for the hope
of better days

let me sing
a hymn of grace
for the whole damned
human race

let me have charity
for the poor
and faith
to move the shore

and if the mountains
turn to sand
it will be
by your command

o Lord
give me heart
let me be brave
right from the start

let the world
encompass me
and thy Light
set me free
