Everyday I need you lord
But this day especially
I need some extra strength
To face whatever is to be
This day more than any day
I need to feel you near
To fortify my courage
And to overcome my fear
By myself, I can't meet
The challenge of hour
There're times then human help
But we need higher power
To assist us to bear what must be born
And so dear my lord, I prey
Hold on to my trembling hands
And be near me today
