Worries

Lord give me strength that I faint not
When things don't go my way,
But rather rest upon Your word,
And trust in You each day.

I know my worries make me week,
And naught I stand to gain,
But I am frail and human, Lord,
And panic under strain.

Help me believe, dear Lord, that I
Am always in Your care,
And when I am in need of help,
You surely will be there.
