I live alone, Dear Lord,
Stay by my side,
In all my daily needs,
Be thou my guide.
|
|
|
Grant me good health,
For that indeed, I pray,
To carry on my work
From day to day.
|
Keep pure my mind,
My thoughts, my every deed
Let me be kind, unselfish
In my neighbor's need.
|
|
|
|
Spare me from fire, from flood,
Malicious tongues,
From thieves, from fear,
And evil ones.
|
If sickness or an accident befall,
Then humbly, Lord, I pray,
Hear thou my call.
|
|
|
|
And when I'm feeling low,
Or in despair,
Lift up my heart,
And help me in my prayer.
|
I live alone, Dear Lord,
Yet have no fear,
Because I feel your presence
Ever near.
|
|
|
|
Amen.
|
