A Servants Plea

Lord, give me strength, give me conviction.

Lead me in the paths of righteousness, 
and keep me from being the darkness in this journey.

Give me more trials to strengthen my faith.

Let me travel more often the valleys,
and keep me from this world of evil.

Help me grow in Your grace, always to see Your face.

Close my eyes that I will have more faith,
and let me no more stray.

                                 AMEN!
