Courage

O Lord, give me courage to stay the course.
My all you have designed for me come to pass.
when I wonder, hedge me in.
When mistakes of the past begin to march through my mind,
rain on the parade.

When I begin to judge myself by earthly criteria,
Remind me I live in your kingdom.
Show me continually what kingdom success is;
It is not in breadth of position, power, and prestige,
but in depth of relationship with you.
