All that I am now
Or ever hope to be
Comes from Your blessings
And my trust in Thee

My strength and my courage
Flow down from Above
I'm safe in Your shelter
And shielded by Your love

When life seems so empty
And I just can't go on
I talk to You, Jesus
Till all fears are gone

My faith keeps me steady
When my spirit is weak
I look up to Heaven
For the answers I seek

Lord, let me always
Walk the straight, narrow way
Don't let me stumble
Nor go far astray

Take me to Heaven
When my life is through
For all that I am, Lord
I owe to You
