My Right Hand
My right hand is my strength and my guide
he is always by my side.
My right hand is my leader and friend
it is to him I turn when my life is need of a mend.
My right hand is the one I lean on the most
he is the one who guides me when I feel lost.
My right hand is the one who shows me the way
the one to whom I speak to first before I have my say.
He is the one whom I trust
whenever I have got into a fuss.
When fear tries to take control of my life
I turn to my right hand to lead me from the strife.
When I feel lost and don't know what to do
my right hand is always present and leads me out of my stew.
I would give my life for my right hand to stay free
just as He has already done for me.

Psalm 16:8
