But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this
all-surpassing power is from God and
not from us. (2 Corinthians 4:7)

Lord, Give Me Strength

Give us strength, Lord.
Because sometimes things get tough,
and we are ready to quit.

Give us your love, Lord.
Because sometimes people reject us,
and we are tempted to hate.

Give us your eyes, Lord.
Because sometimes life gets dark,
and we lose our way.

Give us your courage, Lord.
Because often we are put under pressure,
and it's hard to do what is right.

Give us yourself, Lord.
Because our hearts were made for you,
and we will not rest until we rest in you.

- Mark Link, S.J-
