A poetic pray for the grace and presence of God.

I rest in You, my Lord, I rest,
I trust in You, and win the test,
My spirit lives, as you kill the flesh,
Embrace me with love, my soul refresh.
I look to You, my Lord, my King,
And to your presence I wish to cling,
To You alone, all faith ascribe,
On my heart, Your Word inscribe.
I rest in You, my Lord, I rest,
Cause me to bring to You my best,
O Lord my love, my heart please train,
And with Your grace, my steps sustain.
