Tune: St Hugh
('Lord, teach us how to pray aright')
*******
Lord, may we open to help be
And others wisdom see
Where seems confusion, frustration
You promise peace, each one
And ourselves to help others too
In matters old or new
That progress be made, each good thing
To us resources bring
If labouring with heavy load
Your words to us bestowed
Come unto me and find your rest
Your burdens eased, you blessed
With your guidance to find way through
Where we seem blocked anew
Show us your plans sure in your time
Throughout life's seasons, rhyme
And so along the path of life
With you, calming of strife
For you the Life, Truth, and Way be
E'en through eternity

Good one Orchi.

Always like the idea of someone having my back.
Thanks Paul.
I'm with Paul B on this one Mr. O ..
Thanks Neville. It might be PC - Plod, that is!
Where you getting these promises and guidance (you mention them) from. Is it imagination or you hearing voices?
From believing words of Scripture, I suppose. So I plod on!
Amen, and Amen. Thank you for the blessing.
Thanks Garth. Plod on!
