As I walk through this land,
Please help me to keep a strong heart!
Please dear Lord, hold my hand...
From your ways, I'll never part.

Just guide me Lord, every day.
And as I sleep at night!
You have my soul, come what may.
Please be my guiding light...

For my thoughts are not my own.
I reach out and know you see,
That this body is only a loan,
Please help take care of me...

Please Lord take my soul.
I know you really care...
Take it Lord, make it whole!
I know you are always there.

Please show me how,
To spread your love...
Help me to spread it now,
So they won't push or shove...

My love for you is not a spree,
For without you I am nothing.
I want the whole world to see.
Their hearts can surely sing...

And that they are never lonely,'
When, on the Lord they lean.
I yearn for you only.
You're a sight to be seen...

And help the rest of the world to see!
That you are their best friend,
You'll allow them to be free...
That life with you has no end.

That they need to be thankful for,
The gifts you send their way.
And to never close the door.
No matter, come what may...

That they can have what they desire,
But it stays here when they go!
Not let them conspire,
Against a King who loves them so...

For you are the greatest being,
That's easy to see.
And their hearts will sing.
That only you can set them free...
