DEVOTIONAL: "IN THEE, O LORD" BY NIEL

In Thee, O Lord, my Rock,

My trust is built in You with love.

Your word has made me whole,

When I was like a lost lamb in a lonely hole.

In Thee, O Lord, my Shepherd,

You are the guidance of my soul.

My heart longs for You,

The Lover and keeper of my soul.

In Thee, O Lord, my Strength,

You make me stronger every day without fail.

My soul bows before You,

The Creator of all the Earth.

In Thee, O Lord, I found myself,

You give my life a greater purpose.

Without fear and without stress,

My heart is forever joined to You.

In Thee, O Lord, the Giver of life,

You make me walk in Your light,

So that I may see what is right

In a world filled with sadness.

In Thee, O Lord, I give thanks,

The Creator of all the Earth.

All honour belongs to You,

Forever and ever. Amen.
