A Prayer For Today

Every day I need Thee,

• Lord, but this day specially.

I need some extra strength

• to face whatever is to be...

This day more than any day

I need to feel Thee near

• • to fortify my courage
• and to overcome my fear.

By myself I cannot meet

• the challenge of the hour.

There are times when

• human creatures
• need a higher Power-
• to help them bear
• what must be borne.

And so, dear Lord, I pray

• • hold on
• to my trembling hand
• and be with me today.
