Father, hear the prayer we offer:

not for ease that prayer shall be,

but for strength, that we may ever

live our lives courageously.

Not for ever in green pastures

FF      DmDm
Not forever by still waters

from the rocks along our way.

Be our strength in hours of weakness,
Bb majorBb   FF         C majorC
in our wanderings be our Guide;

through endeavor, failure, danger,

Savior, be thou at our side.
