My Source Of Strength

God is the source of all my strength,

He meets my every need,

He listens to me when I pray

And is my friend indeed.

When disappointments weigh me down

And no one seems to care,

He never leaves me all alone

For He is always there.

I fall so often on life’s road,

In love He takes my hand,

He lifts me to the solid rock

And helps my feet to stand.

He gives me joy, when all around

Would tempt me to despair

And in my greatest hour of need

I sense His presence there.

When everything seems useless,

All of life has lost it’s charms,

I find my consolation in

His everlasting arms.
