Lord of My Life
Lord of my life is God Who reigns with majesty
Ordering my steps toward eternal grandeur
Restraining me from temptations’ infirmity
Driving me, as by His grace-filled faith, I endure!
Optimized power for servant's heart He does grant
Fortitude He bestows to me, His called steward
Mercy and love He pours, making me jubilant
Yielded gladly am I to Him, now and onward!
Life with my Master is blissfully the greatest
In Him, I can surpass every test's turbulence
Forever He deserves my thanks and praises' best
Exalting His name I’ll do by His providence!
Acrostic, Quatrain
