1996
Lord as I start on this journey for thee,
I ask that you might keep watch over me.
Let your spirit guide my heart and quicken my feet.
So the devil and I shall never once meet.
May my faith never falter and my beliefs hold true,
As I search for your children to bring back to you.
I ask for your blessings on my companion as well,
That the spirit of contention in us will not dwell.
When our voices are silenced by another slammed door,
Will you give us the courage to knock on one more?
Lord if you could help keep that door open for a moment or two,
That should be just enough time to get at least one foot through.
Help us to baptize in the name of your Son
And continue the great work which He hath begun.
As we journey safely here and there,
Please keep us, dear Father, in your loving care.
If ever I should start to feel tired and alone,
Could you give me a lift with a letter from home?
Whether in the suns burning rays or the pouring rain,
May we find comfort and shelter from sharing your name.
With you on our side, I will never give in.
In the name of Jesus Christ... Amen.
