Tell me Lord what I must do

Tell me Lord
what I must do

I read
and study
Your Holy Book
future foretold
by prophets
who put their trust
in You,
and delivered too
from the vengeance
of their enemies

I am so small
I am yes,  Your child
but I am far away
from performances bold

I went
I returned
You orchestrated it

Show me Lord
what I must do
what is best
better
optimum

Show me Lord
frustration
showing itself,
sitting endlessly ... working
the pain escalates
Uncomfortableness
climbs
with every continuing hour

I want to stop
Do you …
want me to stop

Show me Lord
what I must do
to work
A day’s work is never done
yet it is
for that day
God gives no more
than we can handle

He knows above and beyond
what we know or understand

Help me Lord
to handle
today’s work,
to accomplish
all that is necessary
Help me rest
and not fall behind
Help me overcome
and be calm
Help me.
Show me.
Point the way.

Tell me Lord
what I must do
Help me to hear
Your voice
Help me to listen
Help me to obey.

You are true and faithful.
Help me Lord
to be likewise,
to follow Your guidance

Show me the way.
Today.
This day.
Every day
and any day.

I beseech You Lord
Tell me what I must do.
