Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path
(Psalm 119:105; NLT).

💛

1. May I find my feet, Lord,
As a Christian,
Trusting you, alone,
To be my guide.

2. May I roll my sleeves up,
As a Christian,
Serving you in others,
Without pride.

3. May I do my best, Lord,
As a Christian,
Loving you in others,
Barring none.

4. May I stand my ground, Lord,
As a Christian,
Growing more like you,
Till we are one.

💛
