This Day

I wrote this for an SIL branch conference in Yaounde, Cameroon, in 2006. I pulled the recording from a presentation I did for EnterMission, a regular gathering at the Wycliffe US headquarters in Orlando, Florida.
I thank you, Lord, when the work flows smoothly
I ask you, Lord, for a way when I see no way
When my spirit is beaten down, I ask you,
      "Please, lift my head"
And I want to praise you all the time

Refrain
I give you every moment of every day
Every task you give, every word I say
And when the day is done, I leave it in your hands
This day

I take the next step when you give me sight to see it
I reach into you for strength to fight the battle
And when your Spirit fills me with joy
      I'll sing and run and shout in you
I'm all yours, This day

Women
Every moment, every day
I look to you to show the way                  

Men
I listen to you, I give it to you
