Lord, Teach Me Poem by Gert Strydom

Lord, teach me to still trust in You
even when I do not see Your presence in my life
and when I do need to walk through the darkest places
then be there to hold onto my hand.

My whole life, those that I do love and everything that is mine
does have a end and a beginning in Your hand,
are only borrowed to me for a time
and every action, word and sentence

are remembered by You where it has a impact on someone else
and Lord, as a mere man I do continually ask you for mercy.
