Just a Help

I don’t want to stand On a pedestal, But teach me Lord, To be humble. And if you’ll help Me just to stand I’ll let you lead, And guide my hand. To be a help, Lord That’s all I ask. To see a need arise And not hold back. To go and do All that I can, By lif-ting up My brothers hand. Let straight be my steps In all of your ways. That I fear not, Nor be dismayed. Let my hands work, Glean in your field. And all my days, To your spirit yield.

Nice poem, I enjoyed reading. I like prayer poems. I just got through writing one myself. Good job.
