say a little prayer

say a little prayer

though god gives me great strength,
he gives me great trials.
even though my back is burdened
and my feet are weary
he lifts my soul as if
it floats like a feather.
my redeemer, my merciful, my all.
our all.
he is the light in the black night,
the sail in the sea,
the rain for the barren ground.
he shall strengthen me more
through the trials,
the mercy,
the forgiveness.
he is the great teacher
for we are to take heart
all that is taught,
all that we burden,
all that we feel,
all that we give.
for he giveth to us
everything.
and we shall thank him
for this constant abundance!
