Know Me and Try Me

Know me and try me, Lord
Please lift me up,
Strengthen and help me,
And with you let me sup.
I want to give you all my praise,
And rejoice in your name,
Of your mercy, love, and goodness,
And never forget from whence I came.
No matter what comes my way.
Let me remember you are there,
And you will give what I need,
And make me strong enough to bear.
