MY STRENGTH FOR EACH DAY
 
Lord, You give me strength to get through each day.
Christian brothers and sisters help along the way.
How glad I am when I`m among others who believe.
I`m glad when we go into the House of the Lord.

I am strengthened in my spirit as I hear Your Word.
As I go each day, songs we sang can be heard.

One day, I helped a lady move accross town.
A feeling of being closs to God couldn`t be found.
It was a day I wanted to be alone with God.
Instead, I was helping someone on this sod.

When day was finished at night fall,
On my God, I did call.
''Father, I`m sorry I didn`t spend time with You.''
''But you did. Helping others, you help Me too.
Come, My yoke is easy and My burden is light.
In helping others, you are doing what`s right.''

This revelation gives me the strength I need.
I want to please God and sow His love seed.
It gives me strength to know I`m not alone.
Each brother and sister is a helping stone.

Each poem I read and each poem I write
Gives me more strength and more insight.
In a way, each one of you poets and poetess
gives me strength through each day.

[ You give me strength to get through each day ]
