PRAYER FOR STRENGTH
Every day I need you Lord, but this day especially,
I need some extra strength to face whatever is to be.
This day more than any day I need to feel You near,
To fortify my courage and to overcome my fear.
By myself, I cannot meet the challenge of the hour,
There are times when humans help, but we need a higher power
To assist us bear what must be borne,and so dear Lord, I pray –
Hold on to my trembling hand and be near me today.
Amen.
