Everyday

author Unknown

Every day I need you Lord 
But this day especially, 
I need some extra strength 
To face what ever 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.
