My life is in Your hands, dear Lord,
Do with it what You will;
For I am only here on earth
Your purpose to fulfill.
I know not what You want from me,
What small part I must play
To make Your world a better place,
So guide me, Lord, I pray.
You know I'm weak and fearful, Lord,
Unsure of what to do;
Afraid of failure, insecure,
But truly loving You;
Sincerely wanting to serve You well,
Trusting You more each day;
I care not what You ask of me
I'll do whate'er You say.
I'll follow You where'er You lead
Throughout the livelong day,
My life is in Your loving hands
As I slowly find my way
Through snares of indecision,
And pitfalls of deceit,
Betrayal, disappointment,
From people that I meet.
My life, my heart, my mind are Yours
So guide me, Lord, I pray;
Your love and strength will hold me up
On the straight and narrow way.
