My Lord is the most important thing in my life I ask Him to help me to honor Him, His way
Through a life of joy and sorrow,
I know it all, as gain. Bless me with empathy
And love for those
With loneliness, or pain
With each new tomorrow
Give me a taste of Christ, who died,
A suffering death to carry away
Each sin I’ve done, through pride.
Then give me through this heartache
An inner light, to shine for thee,
So others can hear the calling,
Of your voice that sets all free.
By the resurrected glory
And redemption through the King,
Who gives strength for each new trial
And, grace through everything.
Let patience and acceptance
Be my motto for each day.
That I not show disapproval,
That they do not think my way.
Let me show my hope for the future
In telling others from the start,
Of the glorious life, you offer each soul
When you dwell within their heart
Lord, use my life for your purpose,
In whatever trial you bring.
Keep me humbly, bowing on my knees
To my Jesus; my Lord, my King.
