My hair is gray,
my body is weak.
I'm slowing down,
I'm past my peak.
The less I do,
but yet I still.
I remain strong,
to do God's will.
My bones tell me,
what I can't do.
So in these times,
I try something new.
I work on my garden,
and walk even more.
But what hasn't changed,
I serve the Lord.
I need my glasses,
to improve my sight.
I need a break,
every morning and night.
Sometimes I forget,
what I wanted to say.
But one thing I remember,
when it's time to pray.
Our life can bring a change,
without any notice.
It can be the darkest time,
but we can overcome this.
Because in our setback,
it can certainly help us.
It can draw us closer,
to our Savior Jesus.
We reach out to him,
and let our prayers be known.
So we rely on him,
and never do it alone.
Our life can bring us despair,
but never without his presence.
We may not see his purpose,
but it can produce endurance.
Our life can show our weakness,
especially in times of trouble.
God will provide us strength,
if we seek him in our struggle.
Our life has it's moments,
that brings us happiness.
So we thank the Lord,
in all circumstances.
You are the potter,
I am the clay.
Because of you,
I was wonderfully made.
Created for a purpose,
a plan for me.
With your divine guidance,
and help from thee.
You are the shepherd,
I am the sheep.
There's nothing I lack,
because your blessings I reap.
Great are you, Lord,
and mighty are your deeds.
You're able to do,
more than I ask or need.
You are the vine,
and the branch is me.
Apart from you,
I can do nothing.
You're my guiding light,
you direct my path.
You are my Savior,
and more than that.
You're Lord of lords,
and King of kings.
You are my refuge,
you are my everything.
I stand in awe,
you still amaze me.
With your everlasting love,
and your great mercy.
