Closer Walk

By Martha Duke Manley ©

OH! LORD MY GOD, MY KING.

ALL POWER IS IN THY HAND.

MAY I STRIVE EVER ONWARD,TO BE THE BEST THAT I CAN.

I KNOW OF MY SHORTCOMINGS,MY FAILURES AND MY SINS.

BUT HELP ME OH, DEAR SAVIOR

TO KNOW JUST WHERE TO BEGIN.

A LIFE OF DEARER SERVICE.MORE DEVOTION TO YOU, I SEEK.

A STRONGER DESIRE TO DO THOU WILL.

IS WHAT I MUST REACH.

BRING GLORY TO THY NAME,

BY EXAMPLE OF MY WORDS AND THOUGHTS.

MAY I LIVE EACH ONE

OF MY DAYS AND YEARS.

IN CLOSER WALK WITH THEE.
