Well Kept

Precious Lord hold my hand Give me strength and help me stand I am doing the best that I can To overcome the obstacles that are at hand People are watching, hoping to see me fail But with You, Father, I shall prevail I refuse to give up, I must press on With all my strength, every muscle and every bone I cannot sleep, I will not rest Until I know I have passed the test My problems are many, my troubles are great But I must be strong, I must carry the weight At night I weep, please hear my cry And send Your angels from the heavens beyond the sky Some people tell me I should give up Others say I have bad luck But with You there is no such thing Because You are God Almighty, The Everlasting King No matter how hard it is, no matter what I may go through I am going to stand fast and wait on You A man's heart plans his ways, but the Lord directs his steps I place my trust in You, O Lord, because in You I am well kept Lakedrick LeAnder Graham
