No victory crowned the daily path I trod. But He who came to seek and save the lost, In loving kindness lifted me from sin To walk with Him the straight and narrow way. And gave me peace and happiness within. My life I gave to Him to take and use As zealously I sought to do His plans. But first it must be fitted for His use And shaped and moulded by His mighty hand. And patience, meekness - just to wait and trust And yield--were lessons sometimes learned in tears. But oh, the joy of having His strength mine! To know His perfect love which cast our fears. To lead a worthwhile, satisfying life. The search for fame or fortune cast aside-- Meant life within the centre of His will, In faith and service with Him to abide. To be a blessing to those round about, A light along the way--this is my prayer. Not mighty works, but rather faithfulness In all He has entrusted to my care. The future lies before me unrevealed, But wisely guided by His gentle hand My aim is this--to make life count for Him, And follow step by step at His command. Pat Friesen - Piano Teacher 29
