16.

Where are You my Lord

In this daily world of mine?

Mired and buried deep in endless routine

I lose sight of what is before me.


Oh my Lord, hear my call

As I seek to know You in secret places

Refresh me and reveal to me a new part of You

Each day in my life.


Oh my Lord, help me I pray

To see the wonder and the beauty of You

To know my Lord that I am never apart from You

In every moment of my breath.


Oh my Lord, open my eyes

To see the world through Your eyes

To find You in every place

In all that is around me.


Oh my Lord, help me remember consciously

The blessings You have so lavishly poured onto me

And for Your loving presence and mighty hand

In my everyday life.


As so oh Lord that I do not forget

To acknowledge Your authority over me

To praise You in all occasions

And Your name be always on my lips in thanksgiving.


Oh my Lord, forgive me

For taking for granted

All the things that seems to come so naturally

The simple things that are ever constant in life.


For not realising oh Lord

That with just one word

Everything in this world that I am familiar with

Will be swept away in an instant.


Like dust in the wind.


For my Lord, You created the heaven and the earth

You dictate the passage of the sun and the moon

All that was, is and will be is within the palm of Your hands

You are the Author of Life, the Beginning and the End.


Oh Lord, may You be glorified

In all of my days

May Your truth shine forth

Illuminating the Way.


Amen
