Strengthening Prayer
I go down upon my knees,
To the Father with my pleas;
From whom all up in Heaven,
That His name has been given.
I ask God to give a gift,
That your spirit will uplift;
From His glory of such wealth,
And for your spiritual health.
I pray He gives inner strength,
To persevere any length;
With power through His Spirit,
To defeat what may inhibit.
Then Jesus will live in you,
Through faith every day through;
So you will be keeping strong,
The complete day and night long.
I also pray that His love may,
Be rooted deeply to stay;
To secure the foundation,
Assuring your salvation.
Then you will know just how wide,
And how deep it will abide;
For it does go far beyond,
The relationship you bond.
