God help me to discern – v5

God help me to listen
to the words You have spoken
lessons for life
now as they were then.
Words of power,
words of connection,
guiding our hearts
our unruly tongues.

God help me to understand
the full rich meaning
Your words of scripture
for my life now.
Nothing vague,
nothing general,
something for me
within every word.

God help me to discern
Your path for me
to see the way
clear of the fog.
Certain of Your call,
certain of Your protection,
leading me onward
in the plan that You wrote.
