The
Wavering Christian's Prayer
Give me strength for, Lord, I
need it,
give me courage to plod on.
Help me overcome temptation;
show me, Lord, I'm not alone.
Oh, for grace to keep me going!
Please, from You don't let me
roam.
Grant me now Your tender mercy;
lead me to Your heavenly home.
Give me heartfelt blood
redemption
and a staunch determined will
to reach upward for Your riches,
not turning back nor standing
still.
Yes, my Lord, You will enfold
me;
You will cleanse my heart anew,
and again You will restore me
with Your love so pure and true.
