Clarity Of The World

I ask the Lord for clarity, so that I may truly see,
the only thing that I can change, is me.
 My thoughts, feelings and emotions, a soul that’s on the mend,
courage, wisdom and knowledge, I prayed for Him to send.
 To let His peace, love and mercy, be my very guide,
under His wings of protection, I pray that I abide.
 To change those things of darkness, thats borne in my heart,
letting only words of life, from my tongue have part.
 Though I live in a world of darkness, help me walk now in His light,
to be my strength, and drive, when with myself I fight.
 Changing only me, putting my shadows at my feet,
with His grace and mercy, giving to all I meet.
 No matter what I’ve been givin, it’s what I give you see, 
with the clarity of this world, the changes comes through you and me.
