Lord

Open my eyes so I may see and feel

your presence close to me

Give me strength for my stumbling feet

as I battle the crowd on life's busy street

And widen the vision of my unseeing eyes

so in passing faces I'll recognize

not just a stranger, unloved and unknown,

but a friend wth a heart that is much like my own.

I see His blood upon the rose

And in the stars the glory of His eyes,

His body gleams amid eternal snows

His tears fall from the skies.

I see His face in every flower,

The thunder and the singing of the birds

Are but His voice - carven by His power

Rocks are His written words.

All pathways by His feet are worn,

His strong heart stirs the ever-beating sea,

His crown of thorns is twined with every thorn

His cross is every tree.

Give us strength throughout the coming day

quietness of mind

help us to be patient

and always to be kind.

give us reassurrance when everything goes wrong

so our faith remains unfaltering

and our hope and courage strong.

and show us that in quietness

we can feel your presence near

filling us with joy and peace,

and speak that we might hear.

Enjoy God's spectacular precision

The name of the Lord is a strong tower

Thank you for another day!
