Proud and Bold

Lord, keep me in you way;
Please, walk with me this day.
Apart from you I am nothing;
You are my Lord, my everything.

I say to my brother in this land;
The wise reach out for His hand.
The children of His noble birth,
Sing praises for all they’re worth.

They are fools who worship men;
And look to the world to bless them.
As for me that road I will not trod;
I will not worship this world’s god.

Lord, you alone my portion be;
You alone paid the price for me.
Your mercy to me you did bestow;
Your loving blessings I now know.

To the believers I praise your name;
And to the lost your love I proclaim.
You place you word in my very soul,
And give me strength to make me whole.

In my life you are the purpose and reason.
Your blessings abound from season to season.
So plentiful are your gifts I can not hold,
But by your strength I stand proud and bold.
