Lord, I Need You

Author Dana Redricks
December 29, 2023

Oh Lord, as the waves crash around me relentlessly, I feel myself sinking, life spiraling out of control, oh so unsteadily.
 In this chaotic world, where everything seems out of line,
 my words, they stumble, causing trouble, I need Your divine grace to lead me to a peaceful place.

Guide me, Lord, lead me back to the safety of Your embrace, for I’m lost, overwhelmed, seeking solace, craving grace.
 Hold me close, console my weary soul, grant me strength to endure, in this sea of confusion, with mysteries I struggle to assure.

As the world crumbles, falling apart before my bewildered eyes, I stand here alone, my thoughts consumed by doubt, where truth lies.
 Frustration builds, emotions stirring, yearning to scream and shout, but instead, I turn to You, my Savior, to empower me throughout.

Give me the resilience, the courage to stand upright, amidst the storms, the challenges, the darkest of nights.
With Your presence, I find solace, I am not alone, You bestow upon me the strength I need to make my own.

So Lord, in times of struggle, when all seems out of hand, grant me wisdom, grant me peace, let me firmly withstand.
 For in Your guidance and love, I find tranquility and grace, empowered by Your spirit, I’ll endure any race.
