I Need - poem

Lord,

I need Your grace and peace
To accept and receive
Where changes are not meant to be.
Let me not murmur but help me see
That You have something special just for me.

I need Your strength and courage
To change the things I can
And not be unduly afraid.
Yes, "If I perish, I perish"
All I need is just a prayer away.

I need Your wise precept
To know what I should accept
And what I should reject.
Let me persevere and not waver
Let me trust and disobey never.

- Bee
