Lord into thy hands I commit this week
Into thy sight I commit these hustles
When I open my mouth, Lord through me speak
And when you need to act, move through these muscles

To touch a life, Lord through me reach
To call forth blessings, through me beckon
To save a soul, Father through me preach
To show example, by me reckon

Be Godfather as I make these deals
Instruct, Father, as I draw these workplans
Review, God, before I stamp these seals
Renew, Father, when I rest these worn hands

In time, Father, may I find your rest
at the end of these concrete pathways
I’d do my part and let you do the rest
Cos thats the hope that keeps me through these dark days

Amen
