Whenever you feel afraid, lost or lonely, remember that God is waiting for you to reach out to Him so that He can comfort you and take your burdens from your shoulders. We only have to ask.

DO NOT FORSAKE ME, LORD, I PRAY

Do not forsake me, Lord, I pray,
For my need of You is great.
I need to hear from You each day,
As before Your throne I wait.

As I come into Your presence, Lord,
Let me hear Your still, small voice,
So I may know Your will for me,
For to serve You is my choice.

Pour out Your living water, Lord –
Quench my dry and thirsty soul.
Stretch out Your gentle, healing hand –
Come touch me, make me whole.

You alone are my strength and shield,
And my joy will never cease.
May Your love and peace always flow through me
And to others bring release.

Touch me now, Oh Lord, I pray,
And fill me with Your power.
For my desire is to serve You, Lord,
Each and every waking hour.
