Lord, I can be so very happyJust sharing your Word with friends.Please help me in all your Power,To reach away from sin.Lord, help me to always respect my friends,And realize their commitment to you.Let me help them to be strong enoughTo do what you want them to do.I just want to be able, LordTo get through every day,Without ever having to apologizeFor saying what I should not say.Lord, help me to read and understandThe message in your Holy Word.Then help me to be willing to practiceThe things I have already heard.Lord, help me to stay in touch with you.Help me leave temptation behind.I want to search the scripturesUntil I find what I need to find.It’s Trimmed in White is a compilation of poetry that will delight church-goers of all ages, religious denominations, and spiritual beliefs.
