Hold Strong

I wake to a beautiful day 
As the sun shine in a very brightly way
I fall to my knees so I can pray 
Help me though my strategies 
As I face new challenges everyday.

Stay in my presence along my way,
Controlling what I do & what i say.
Helping me to not go  astray. Giving up and running away.

The devil tapped me on my shoulder as
Jesus whispered in my ear, telling
Me to rebuke Satan cause my  break though is near.

I know u can't see cause nothing is clear but, hold on my child as I touch you so your know I'm here.

Things get tough sometimes rough 
He even knows when I've had enough,
He truly understands due to the life he lived here on earth.
