words and music by Micah Fickett
Keep me from simply surviving
in you may I find true life
Let your joy be overflowing
Even in the midst of strife
Give me strength and perseverance
Grant me wisdom in the night
Fill be with thy loving presence
And equip me for the fight
Cause Im not going to make it on my own
Cause Im not going to make it without you
And in times when all is peaceful
In the seasons free from care
Keep my spirit ever heedful
of your blessed presence there
Let me not forget the lessons
that you thought me through my pain
Rather let me always question
if you profit from my gain
I have had my times of plenty
Times of need Ive had as well
Thereve been days where Ive gone hungry
Thereve been nights I had my fill
I have found a deep contentment
Christ alone my spirits strength
Come abundance, come bereavement
At all times I will give thanks
