Day by day God walks with me
and my burdens he helps me bear.
Each step I take along the way
my heavenly Father is there.

Day  by day I feel God's love
encircling me all around.
His grace and mercy covers me
and pick me up when I am down.

Day by day the Lord keeps me
from danger, hurt and harm.
Safe from the snares of the enemy
and from all the world's alarms

Day by day I count on the Father
to strengthen me when I am weak
He comforts me with His love
and to my heart He speaks peace.

Day by day I feel God's presence
and my spirit comes alive.
My heavenly father protects me
as a father does his own child

God imparts his grace to me
Minute by minute, day by day.
By faith I walk in step with him
and he guides me on my way.

When night changes into day
we get a chance to start over again.
We can complete the things left undone
and  reach back and make amends.

God protects us by His power
we are not here by happenstance. 
But by a divine connection with God
He upholds us with His hand.

God oversees all that concerns us 
keeping  watch night and day.
With His all-seeing eyes He leads us.
He orders our steps and direct our way.

God surrounds us with His mercy,
and He covers us with His love.
He speaks peace to our weary souls
as He looks down from up above.

God knows the way that we take
our lives are in His hand.
And the outcome of every situation
is under His divine command.

God's all-seeing eyes are upon us.
He protects and shelters His own
We are forever secure in His loving care
and He promises  not to leave us alone

You have served your time
and lived out your days.
You have now made the move
from your house of clay.

You went on ahead of us,
as you answered the call.
We, too, must take our leave,
not just some of us, but all.

We can no longer see you,
but we can feel you near.
You are hidden in our hearts,
and we'll always hold you dear.

We can no longer hear you,
but we will keep you close.
The memories of you are many,
and the love will not grow old.

We can no longer touch you,
but thoughts of you remain.
We remember your kindness
and the love we exchanged.

You are absent from the body;
it has now returned to the dust.
But your spirit lives on
and will reunite with us.

Caring deeply for one another
seeing the burdens others bear.
Love moves us to help the hurting
so we pray to show we care

There is suffering and injustice.
Violence and conflicts we all share
The hatred and injustice around us
bring us to our knees in prayer

When I give my concerns to Jesus
for hurting people everywhere
I know my God has the answer
So I just take it to Him in prayer

Jesus encourages us all to pray,
to live by faith and not despair
When we are pressed on every hand
we can go to God in secret prayer

God gives us hearts of compassion
So hurting people will know we care.
We are to bear each other's burdens
and always remember them in prayer.
