O Lord my God how I need You

    each minute every day.

To guide me, teach me, keep me safe

    and hear me when I pray.

I need You to correct me

    when 1 am going wrong.

I need Your Strength around me,

    for then I'm really strong..

I need You, Lord, to lead me

    and guide me on the Way -

You've prepared for me to grow

    more like You every day.

Thank You that You promised that

    You'll never leave my side -

And Your Love around me is

    high, deep, long and wide.

O Lord my God how I need You

    each minute every day -

To guide me, teach me, keep me safe

    and answer when I pray.

 

 

 

 

The clock beat out a loud tattoo

    like drumbeats on my brain –

As Time marches relentlessly

    till Jesus comes again.

Those things I do not do today

    may not get done at all -

For that piece of time is lost –

    it's gone beyond recall.

So, Lord, if I don't heed Your Voice

    each minute every day -

Please nag me ‘til I share Your Love

    encourage folk and pray.

Lord, I thank You even when

    all things seem to go wrong –

For I know when I praise You

    my spirit will grow strong.

In that strength I'll overcome

    frustration and despair –

For where my greatest need is

    I know you will be there.

 

 

 

 

Lord, as I do each daily task

    whatever it may be -

Please guide me, teach me, keep me safe

    And give Your Peace to me.

Lord, I'm prepared to follow You

    in just the way You choose.

I'll go Your Way instead of mine

    and agree with Your views.

Help me to always go Your Way

    with sensitivity -

With much greater understanding

    and Your humility.

I want to see things You show me

    the way they're seen by You -

And always glorify Your Name

   in all I say and do.

 

 

 

 

 

Dear Father God, please place Your Way

     so firmly in my brain -

That I will not be tempted

     to go my way again.

Give me an inner silence, so

     Your Voice booms like a gong –

Then every moment of my life

     I will know right from wrong –

Not following others, but just

     what is Your Will for me.

Please keep me in Your narrow Way

     whatever that may be.

          The First Skiing Holiday

 

Father, I’m high above the sea

     on mountains You have made.

Now that I must ski down again

     I’m really quite afraid.

I know I should be capable

     for 'basics' I've been taught .

And yet my feet don’t always do

     exactly what they aught .

I know if I ‘schuss’ I’II go fast .

     and ‘snowploughing' slow down.

And if ‘snowploughing' skis are 'edged’

     I’II stop without a frown.

I’ve learned to turn a corner with

     weight on the ‘outside’ ski.

I’II ‘traverse’ across a mountain

     ever so happily.

I know I must stand upright,

    ‘less I want to gather speed.

That my pelvis must be tilted

     slightly behind my knees.

But I've been known to go too fast

     in my stupidity -

So lead me onto paths that keep

     Your Peace and Joy with me.

Guide me to snow that will slow down

     my maniacal speed.

Please bellow loudly in my ear

     so I’ll have to take heed.

I do not seem to notice all the

     things that I should see –

So Father, guide me always on

     safe paths that You can see.

 Remind me, Lord, to thank You

    every single day.  

Remind me to  be grateful

   for boulders in-my way.

Lord, You are all-powerful   

   and control all things still –

So nothing can obstruct me

   unless it is Your Will.  

 Please give me a grateful heart,

   for then I can receive 

All the wealth You offer those

   who love, trust and believe.

 

 

 

  

 

Please forgive me Lord I pray'

   for all faults I've made today.

Unawares they crept on me.

   None were done deliberately.

Yet each one, Lord, gave You pain.

   So that Your Peace I regain -

Please forgive me, Christ my King

   for each 'harmless' little sin.
