Ema Mckinley Poem
Precious Father, You are everything to me
You are the light of my world, my daily help and strength
You are my joy and the comfort in my pain
It is well with my soul because You are mine and I am Yours
Thank You for offering Yourself to me and letting me have the peace
I know that You will never leave me nor forsake me
How thankful I am to know that I can count on Your love,
That I can trust You for all my needs
I refuse to be discouraged for You are my hope
It means the world to me to know
You know my heart and soul better than anyone else
You accept me just as I am with Your perfect love
Always encourage me O God
To do the things in my daily life Your way
Because Your way will give me victory over every challenge that I face
I just want to worship and to praise You with my whole being
For the rest of my life I want to walk close to You
And depend on You, knowing that You will not fail me
Thank You for being in control
For being the One who is greater than any of my problems
Help me to be all that You created me to be

Ema Mckinley Poem
A short time ago, my faith was not so strong
I just lived my life as well as I could
As time passed, it seemed as if I had less strength
And not enough faith to face the storms in my life
In trying to hold on, I realized I needed to cry out
To You, Heavenly Father, for more strength from above
I am so thankful You reached out to me with Your loving arms
And helped me work through my storms
As you held my hand, You guided me
You helped me smile through the darkness and the pain
Though there are many tears, my faith in You is growing stronger every day
As You make known to me Your will
I am weak, but You are strong
And I know with all my heart that You care for me
The storms may be rough, but I know they’re for my own good
That is how I grow
I will face many more storms in my life
But, oh, how I long to feel the joy and peace from above
I want to feel the very presence of my Heavenly Father
As You work in me, I wouldn’t have it any other way
Thank You, Heavenly Father
For being more than I need to face the storms in my life
Thank You for caring so much for me
