Guide Me Today

by Donna Wallace


 

Dear Lord,

 

Help to guide me today

Stay right beside me today

Help me remember you in prayer

and remind me you're always there.

 

Help me live in your image today

Mirroring your love in every way

Help make me an instrument of your love

Shower me with miracles sent from above.

 

Help me to remember that you are my Lord

living and loving as you created me for

Help me to live as you wish me to be

Open to the blessings you're sending to me.

 

Help make me better than I was yesterday

Lord, you created me perfect in every way.

Help me to spread your love far and wide,

remembering you're always here by my side.

 

Help me do your will not selfishly mine

Remind me that your love is strong and divine

Help me be strong in the times I feel weak

Help me to hold my tongue when I shouldn't speak.

 

Answer the prayers, Lord, I'm praying to you

Assure me that with you I can endure

Lord, light, my candle when it flickers and dims

and Lord help me to live without sin …
