Im Not Here To Stay
Lord I know I'm not here to stay,
But thanks for waking me up today.
Prepare me for what may come my way
And take my pains and burdens away.
Teach my muted lips to pray,
Teach me your truth to say,
Help me keep my foes at bay
And teach me to watch and slay.
Lord! I don't know how long it will take
to take me to the doorway
But make a way where
there's seems to be no way
Wax away all my dismay,
Stick with me in every step I take
And every move I make.
And I will serve you till my dying day.
