A New Heart

A prayer in the community
a new heart,
if it be God’s will
a new hope,
in his hands still
leaning on you,
in your loving arms

Praying to your, Lord
to find me here
to lead me on
to comfort me still
to stay the course
to trust only in you
the rock I stand on

The place where I live
in you Lord alone
in your loving care
hope for tomorrow
for your guiding hand
to guide the surgeons
in you do I stand
