Prayer In The Valley Of The Shadow

Glory of the Lord, Beloved and Friend,
I proclaim Your name for all to hear,
And strive each day Your words to comprehend.

I pray that my will with Your own might blend,
I ask strength to overcome my fear,
Glory of the Lord, Beloved and Friend.

The light of Your love my terrors amend;
I cross death’s valley without despair,
And strive each day Your words to comprehend.

I thank you for the chance I have to send,
To humanity Your love’s sweet cheer,
Glory of the Lord, Beloved and Friend,

Thank you for the scriptures that my wounds mend,
That aid me to go beyond the fear,
To strive each day Your words to comprehend.

Test by test you give me strength to transcend
The doubts that steal from me Your love’s cheer,
Glory of the Lord, Beloved and Friend,
I strive each day your words to comprehend.
