Be Near Me, Lord

 

Be near me, Lord, each night and day
And lead me with Your light,
O, keep me in Your loving care,
And guide my life aright.

Forgive my every sin and fault
For all the years gone past,
The years ahead I give to You
However long they last.

I praise You for Your goodness, Lord,
My heart I give to Thee,
O help me, Lord, to live for You
Through all the years to be.

~ Rev. Thomas Foy

  1. Oh my...I memorized this prayer 30 years ago and tried to recall it and couldnt. Today I was getting a root canal and it popped in my head...I know it was God who put it in my spirit...
