Today, Dear Lord
I'm Requesting
A Pair Of Blinkers
For My Eyes
To Keep Me Looking Forward And Upward
To The Happy Home On High
But
Not To The Left Nor Right!
Help Me, Lord
Not To Be Side-Tracked
By All The Clamor And Confidence
Of Mere Men
Who
Even Through Their Hustle And Bustle
It Can Be Seen That They Are At Their Very Wits' End!
Lord,
The Road Has Been
And
Is Long
But I Have Arrived
At Peace With And Through You!
Help Me Not To Give It Up
For Biscuit And Butter
That Is Gone Before I Can On It Fill Up!
Lord,
You Promised The Faithful
Provision - Bread And Water Secure!
Please, Help Me To Hold On
For Your Hand Of Provision
So That I May Have The Right To The Tree Of Life
AND
To Walk Through Heaven's Gate Door!
Remember The Holy People
AND
Your Promise
To Preserve Our Souls!
Remember, Lord
That We Have Given Ourselves To You
And That We Believe That We Are Not Our Own
AND
Help Us To Walk On In Faith
With Our Backs To This Deceitful World
Our Shoulders To The Straight-Gospel Plow
Our Hearts Set To Heaven
AND
Our Eyes Fixed On The Eastern Sky!
Prepare Us, Lord
To Meet Our God
For
We Are Your Children!
Please Take Us Safely Home
For
Jesus Christ We Claim
AND
In Him We Make Our Stand.
AMEN.
