Lord Keep Me Strong

Forever and ever

Lord I'd like to think that I have made a contribution
so as to leave this world a better place to be
even though it can be lost in its own smallness
You can always tell that it's from the heart of me
it takes a lot of little things to add up unto greatness
and though not completely satisfied I can go along
with being just a little cog in the wheels of Your Kingdom
so I'll put my faith in You, Lord keep me strong
my body and my mind, my spirit all the time
Lord keep me strong -- Lord keep me strong

Now Lord I think You know that I'll be forever grateful
for the helping hand that You extended to me
and I want to thank You for the blessings You have given
and all the times You've carried me over the stormy sea
Your strength makes it easier whenever I face temptations
and You're quick to forgive me when I have done You wrong
if loving You is all it takes to get into Your Kingdom
then I'll meet You there, Lord keep me strong
my body and my mind, my spirit all the time
Lord keep me strong -- Lord keep me strong

I don't believe there is anything I can add to that except to say that if you would like to see more such poems included in these blog postings you are urged to leave a comment below. I am thinking about making my next posting a non - political commentary on our present political situation. Can it be done? Stay tuned to find out. Thanks, William
