Lord of my Heart


Do not shun me when I am old,
Or desert me when I am gray;
For as you know we have been told,
God will be there if we obey.

Even if we lose our might,
And our foes talk about me;
As long as we stay in His sight,
God will be faithful to my plea.

Even within the midst of strife,
And my foes have a secret plan;
They cannot try to take my life,
Unless God has said that they can.

Because the Lord will rescue me,
And not allow my life to end;
He promises consistency,
Both as my God and as my friend.

That is why I will praise Him more,
Remaining the Lord of my heart;
Since I already know for sure,
That the Lord will never depart.

So I will always have the hope,
That the Lord will forsake me not;
And I will continue to cope,
Remembering what I was taught.
