Jehovah Guides and Protects

Lord as I venture out today, guide protect
And keep me on my way. What lies ahead
I do not know; cover me under your blood
from head to toe. 

My steps are ordered, and you know my name 
All the hairs on my head are numbered and 
You love me the same.

Your constant protection I crave each day,
This earnest need I humbly pray.

With you on my side I have no fear,
The devil have no place, when your
Spirit is near.

Wow! You sure do bring it from the heart and that's what Jehovah wants to hear.. I haven't been out in service for well over a week. I've been somewhat under the weather with the flu. I miss getting out with everyone at the hall. I hope I'm well enough to go tomorrow. Have a nice day and thanks so much for all of the warm comments. Keep the good writing up.
