Every problem, every challenge… I know just what I need.
The answer never changes no matter how I plead.
More God when I am angry and when I’m feeling hateful;
More God when I am selfish and when I am ungrateful.
More God when I’m uncertain and when I’m feeling fearful;
More God when I am down and when my eyes are tearful;
More kindness to convey, more love to give away;
More light to fight the gray, more faith that all’s okay.
Every hardship, every stress… I know just what I need.
The answer never changes no matter how I plead.
More God when I am critical and when I’m quick to judge;
More God when I am stubborn holding tightly to a grudge.
More God when I’m resentful and feel life isn’t fair;
More God when I’m indifferent and I fail to act or care.
More kindness to convey, more love to give away;
More light to fight the gray, more faith that all’s okay.
