Walk With Me

Note: I wrote this during my 4 day silent retreat in Singapore. I have tendencies to do these things while on retreats.

Lord, my heart is full of fear,

Yet I know that you are near,

You are there to wipe my tears,

Your gentle voice I always hear.

Walk with me on this road of life,

Grant me grace and strength to survive,

Teach me the meaning of sacrifice,

So that you will be glorified.

And though I want to walk with you,

I need your love to pull me through,

To you all glory is due,

Because of your love so true.

Guide me Lord, take my hands,

That I can proudly stand,

Shout your love across the land,

To all women, child and men.
