ADD TO MY FAVORITES
whose lives are filled with woe.
Brother, sister, stranger, friend,
who fight the Ancient Foe.
Lead me, guide me, use me, Lord,
my self extend to aid;
smile, prayer, or gentle touch,
let worries briefly fade.
Father, I ask this only,
to comfort aching breast.
To give what others have not--
compassion, mercy, rest.
When loved ones turn and walk away,
may I still stand my ground.
Someone needs a helping hand;
in me may it be found.
Employ my life dear Jesus,
to succor failing hope.
Engage me as a vessel
serving useful in this scope.
A shoulder they can lean on,
an ear that they can bend;
a heart to weep in concert,
Your love to them extend.
I wait on Your keen wisdom
to show me in Your way;
The heart that needs Your footprints,
to ease them through this day.
-- Amen
