Though the storm rages all about me
And the wind swept Tempest is near,
Dear LORD, be my Palivion
Grant me Courage and freedom from fear.

Sometimes my life gets so mixed up
Things go diff'rently from what I'd planned,
How much I need Your Guidance
So LORD help me please understand.

I know not what lies before me
My future unwritten, obsured,
But with You as My Savior
I believe that my Destiny's sure.

So just for this day, I ask You
To give me the Strength that I need,
Faith to remove Life's mountains
Love & Wisdom to follow Thy Lead.
