Help me, Lord (Psalm 109:26; NLT).
1. Help me, Lord,
To live with my poor body,
So I can bear the damage
Life has done.
2. Help me, Lord,
To catch my careless judgments,
So I can change them,
Growing like your Son.
3. Help me, Lord,
To face my darkest moments,
So I can share them with you
Day by day.
4. Help me, Lord,
To find you in my spirit,
So I may rest with you
Along the way.
