Toil, Toil, and Trouble

Worry whirling twirling around in my head.

All before I leave my bed

What to do now, what to do when

What have I gotten myself in

Pressure on pressure off

I want it all to stop

Trouble here, trouble there,

It seems as if it’s everywhere

I turn to the left, to the right

I just don’t have the might

Help me take one step at a time

Focused only on what I can unwind

Help me walk the way of peace doing what I can

Help me rely on your steady and stable hand

So much to do, so much to say,

Someone to be...But just not today

Why is today so different than most

What seems to be the trouble?  I holler and boast

Today so troublesome, so worrisome, so blue

Why, is it so difficult to know what to do

Open my eyes my heart my soul

Help me see the path I must inevitably go

Take my hand lead me the way

I am overwhelmed, but why today

Yesterday was better by far a normal day

I started my day listening to what you had to say

This morning is much harder, I cannot explain

Someone, or something is causing me pain

I am not sure what it is, but I know you have the fix

I am asking you Lord, please, come get in the mix

I need you to order and structure my day

I need you to assure me its ok along the way

~~~~~~~

Seeking me is what is needed, your correct it is what to do

Calling on me is what will get you through.

Linger here, sit with me for a while

Your distress and anxiety will be absorbed in God-Like Style

Whisper my name Jesus, Jesus, Jesus

And all fear will be absorbed

Whisper my name knowing you are adored

My name is above all names, here on Earth and in Heaven above

Under my wings you are fully protected, cherished and loved.

Your enemy runs in fear when hearing my name

Giving you trouble is his whole game

Rest, take on my yoke, I have dominion over the day

Because you belong to me there is no need to stand at bay

Embrace this morning with Me by your side

I am with you always and forever, your Eternal-Guide.

Peace be with you, Even as I am with you
