Response to Grief

Lord, fill my heart with Your immortal strength,
When I’m completely overwhelmed with grief.
Purge anger and denials I believe.
And comfort me when I’m too weak to weep.

Lord, fill my mind with Your immortal strength.
When others threaten me for my mistakes.
Lord, fill my lisping tongue with words of grace,
And guide me in the actions I should take.

Lord, fill my arm with Your immortal strength.
That I may execute the work You made for me.
To persevere, exhausted though I be,
Your justice purging our iniquity.
