My Strength 

Another day beginning

And so I run to You,

To ask for strength and courage;

The will to see it through.

 

In my strength, I’m not able

To do the job at hand;

I tend to get discouraged,

Not up to the demand.

 

But You, in all Your goodness,

Give me strength to do my part.

You say, “Be of good courage—

I’m there, within your heart.”

 

So, I face the day before me

With a song and with a prayer.

Knowing You’re beside me,

I’ll endure without despair.
