my father. my shepherd.

My Father. My Shepherd.
   You've been all around me.
You offer me all I need, if only I
   would receive it
   and be satisfied.
You will order my life well,
   if I will seek you.
You are always seeking to
   help me in hardship
   and temptation.
You are delivering me from
   the pit of my sin.
May you get all the credit
   for my life. I am sorry
   for when I try to claim
   the credit for myself.

Amen.
