In Jesus' Name I Pray

(album: Sunday Morning With Charley Pride - 1975)

Father give me strength, to do what I must do
Father give me courage, to say what I must say
Let thy spirit move me, I'm nothing on my own
Father stand by me, I cannot stand alone
In Jesus' Name I pray

Father open up my eyes to your wonders all around
Father let me see the good & beauty of this day
Fill my heart with love for my fellow man
And if I'm tempted Father
Father stay my hand
In Jesus' name I pray

Father help me through the troubled days that lie ahead
Let your light shine before me, that I may find the way
Don't let me stumble Father, or fall beneath my load
Father guide my footsteps, hold me to the road
In Jesus' Name I Pray

Let not hunger be my guide, nor fear be my master
Father let not envy be a part of me in any way
Father search my soul, take away my fear & doubt
Any smallness that you find there, Father cast it out
In Jesus' Name I pray
