Through the ups and downs of life, Lord,
be my firm and level ground…
In between the twists and turns,
be a straight path for my steps…
In my comings and my goings,
be the place my heart calls home…
In my spirit’s highs and lows,
be the grace that keeps me calm…
In the back and forth of choosing,
be my wisdom and my truth…
In the fits and starts of progress,
be the strength of my endurance…
In the ebb and flow of tides,
be the harbor where I dock…
Midst the ins and outs of problems,
be the answer to my prayer…
And among my wins and losses,
be the prize I cherish most…
Amen.
