Help Me Do Your Will, My God
My God, here am I with my desire to do Your will*
Though I’m not worthy... such I'll strive, triumphantly, fulfill
Cognizant of Your might I must depend on, totally still…
Help me; keep my soul marching toward service-hill.
My Lord, in my perseverance to do Your will with diligence
You alone can uphold my patience and persistence
While granting me peace midst worldliness-turbulence…
Help me; keep my faith focused unto You in my worship’s reverence.
My Master, I vow to do Your will and in You, abide
Yet, I admit my inability; thus I need You as my Guide
Enable me to perform joyously as I prudently decide…
Help me; keep my heart in Your love so I won’t backslide.
My Saviour, You’re my example in doing God’s will for Your glory
That reaches out to others, leading them from anxieties’ misery
By Your grace, overcoming slothfulness and its destructive injury…
Help me; keep my spirit trusting Your assured victory.
*Luke 11:2 …When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.
