Lord,

God of my courage

You are my strength

You are the rock that I lean on

when the earth is shaking

and what’s known around me 

crumbles away

You are there

Your love is strong

Your comfort is grounding

Your kindness unchanging

Your gentleness overwhelming

I look to You

and take heart again

anointed by Your spirit

renewed in my mind

I’m bold and courageous

because you are with me

You are for me

and so I will be strong and unafraid

my rock, my strength, my redeemer

let me reflect Your beauty 

to glorify You today

Amen.
