Then, Help Me Lean on You Again (A Prayer)

for this snow-soft winter morning, I thank-you Lord...🎜🎝 Seldom can I recall lines from the night before, the following morning unless I jot them down .The first two lines of today's poem, first introduced as I was getting into bed last nightwere still with me when I awoke this morning!This is my prayer for me and youas we learn to lean on God's arms again and again. I want to walk with You todayAnd talk with You along the wayIn all I do I want to seeThe evidence of You with/in me I want to think on things I shouldAnd speak only words sound and goodIn all I say I want to hearYour still, small Voice to commandeer I want to trust in You aloneTo help me through each day’s unknownIn all I face I want to knowYour gift of grace whereby I go Father in Heaven I thank YouFor Your Presence, faithful and trueThen help me lean on You againIn Jesus’ name I pray, amen © Janet Martin Ps.89:14-16Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne;love and faithfulness go before you.Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you,who walk in the light of your presence, Lord. They rejoice in your name all day long;they celebrate your righteousness. LyricsSweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer 1 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!that calls me from a world of care,and bids me at my Father's thronemake all my wants and wishes known.In seasons of distress and grief,my soul has often found relief,and oft escaped the tempter's snareby thy return, sweet hour of prayer! 2 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!the joys I feel, the bliss I shareof those whose anxious spirits burnwith strong desires for thy return!With such I hasten to the placewhere God my Savior shows his face,and gladly take my station there,and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer! 3 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!thy wings shall my petition bearto him whose truth and faithfulnessengage the waiting soul to bless.And since he bids me seek his face,believe his word, and trust his grace,I'll cast on him my every care,and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!
