for millions of others (only you know how many)
so many of us knocking on your door tonight,
praying about tomorrow’s worries:
My first prayer, Lord, is for the grace of acceptance:
for the serenity to accept what comes
with patience and composure and most of all
with trust in you and in your help
no matter what tomorrow brings…
My third prayer, Lord, is this:
open the eyes and hearts of us all
to the many ways that any of us
might be the answer to others’ prayers,
to the many ways that any of us
might be there for others
in their time of worry and fear…
So, I place my friend in your hands, Lord,
along with millions of others
who go to bed tonight, restless with worry
of what tomorrow may bring…
Protect us, Lord, as we try to find sleep
and watch over us when we do
that awake, we may keep watch with you
and asleep, rest in your peace…
Amen.
Wait On God by Pastor Hezekiah
There may be times in your life
when nothing seems to be going right
Your way gets hard and the road is full
then my God will come to see me through.
Even when I get discouraged,
sometimes when I get discouraged
even when I get discouraged,
I’ll just wait on God.
You might have doubts and you might have fear
problems may come and they might bring tears
but don’t you worry and don’t give up
if you wait on God, he will show up.
If you wait, wait I say on the Lord,
My God will see you through, yes.
If you wait, no matter how long, wait I say
I said all you gotta do is
just hold your peace
and let him fight your battles
Even when I get discouraged,
sometimes when I get discouraged
even when I get discouraged,
I’ll just wait on God.
