Prayer

Because He Lives

God sent his Son

They called him Jesus

He came to love, heal and forgive

He lived and died,

To buy my pardon

An empty grave is there

To prove My Savior lives

CHORUS:

And because he lives

I can face tomorrow

Because he lives

All fear is gone

Because I know He holds the future

And life is worth the living

Just because he lives

How sweet to hold a new born baby

And feel the pride and joy he gives

But greater still- the calm assurance

This child can face uncertain days

Because He lives...

And then one day I’ll cross that river

I’ll fight life’s final war today

And then as death gives way to victory

I’ll see the lights of glory

And I’ll know he reigns

Be Thou My Vision
Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;

Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art.

Thou my best Thought, by day or by night,

Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.

Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word;

I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;

Thou my great Father, I Thy true son;

Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.

Be Thou my battle Shield, Sword for the fight;

Be Thou my Dignity, Thou my Delight;

Thou my soul’s Shelter, Thou my high Tower:

Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.

Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise,

Thou mine Inheritance, now and always:

Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,

High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art.

High King of Heaven, my victory won,

May I reach Heaven’s joys, O bright Heaven’s Sun!

Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,

Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.

Honor the Lord with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase.” Proverbs 3:9

Dear God, Strengthen me and keep me safe from all harm.. grant me Your wisdom for I am lacking it.., keep my heart humble always, forgive me of my sins and cleanse me of all bitternes or grudge, guide me and deliver me from all evil or temptation. Grant me patience love and kindness for others and to serve them humbly.. let all that I do testify to your goodness and providence for me and let me do them to the best of my abilities, bless me for I am nothing without You, in Jesus name I pray.. Amen..
