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.
