    Presence of Mind

    God, please keep me in Your Presence of Mind

     

    I know not what to do, nor what to say

    But I promise to give You my gratitude

     

    I have no where else to be but at Your feet

    Where I have prepared You a seat

     

    May I ask what it is I am to learn

    My life never goes straight just a bunch of bumps and turns

     

    I have no other want but to do Your will

    Through which I often feel like I'm treading up a huge hill

     

    I find at times it is a task that I am not capable to conquer

    But I've been told I can as long as I have a hand from Above

    And that You offer Yours with Love

     

    God, give me peace inside while you transform me into the creature You would have me to be

    My life, my will, my ways

    Whatever it is that needs to change

     

    God, give me Your strength to resist those things that I must let go

    The habits I've formed that offer You no Praise

    Even when its hard and feels really strange

     

    And God, give me Your discerning spirit for all life brings

    To distinguish between that which is bad and that which is good

    And not to get off balance by the varieties of this worlds range

     

    My peace, my strength, my spirit I give to You

    Just in hopes that someday I will make it through to see You

     

    Allow me to go only where Your pure waters flow

    And replenish me by Your daily bread

     

    And Jesus... please... if you could... keep me in Your Presence of Mind

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
