Father – Make Me Strong

Father- make me strong –
Teach me spiritual warfare –
Make my spirit supple –
Let it bend – not break –
Show me how to fight
The fight of faith – make
My light shine brightly –
Make the darkness flee
From me – because Your
Word is my delight

Psalm 37:3-9 – The Bible (KJV) -Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday. Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil. For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.
