Show Me
by
Barbara Philbrook
Show me
Lord the way in which you want me to go,
reveal to me the things that you want me to know.
Put into
my mouth the words that you want me to say,
give me the discernment to know what I can handle and
what must be turned over to you as I pray.
Sanctify
me that I may be able to do the very best job that I may
do,
please give me the demeanor that is needed to attract
others to you.
Allow me
to love others as I know that you love me,
put blinders on my eyes so that nothing negative in my
fellow man will I see.
Let my
caring about others reflect what you feel for me,
may they see that you want to bring them home with you
for eternity.
May I
remember that I am here not to be served but to serve,
and that is an honor greater than any I deserve.
May the
service I offer others the service I provide,
be such that they realize that you are waiting at their
heart's door and invite you within to reside.
May every
word action and deed that I am offering to do,
bring you the Honor and Glory that is deserved by you.
Show me
Lord what it is I can do for you,
then please provide the fortitude I need to carry it
through.
Show me
the way, the truth, and the light,
and I promise you Lord I'll do my very best to get
it right.
I on my
own am incapable of the most minute task,
but Lord with you there beside me I know we can
accomplish anything you ask.
