English poem: Every Day

Every day I need you Lord

But this day especially，

I need some extra strength

To face what ever is to be.

This day more than any day

I need to feel you near，

To fortify my courage

And to overcome my fear.

By myself，I cannot meet

The challenge of the hour，

There are times when humans help，

But we need a higher power

To assist us bear what must be borne，

and so dear Lord，I pray -

Hold on to my trembling hand

And be near me today.
