Father Lead Me Day by Day
2 Corinthians 4
16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. 17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;
Worship Suggestion:
The sound file is looped.
1. As the song plays the first time, make remarks the importance
of being open to the guidance and the will of God in our lives.
Emphasize that this is something we should be mindful of each
and every day. As we awake in the morning we should reflect on our purpose and our mission. God is waiting for us right where we are.
All we need to do is reach out and listen with our hearts. When we do this our faith will bear fruit and others will be drawn to Christ Jesus through us.
2. As the song plays the second time, read the scripture from the book
of II Corinthians 4:6-18 and Psalm 143. Let the song end.
3. When the song restarts, sing Verses 1 - 3 together.
4. Prayer and Meditation.
Father, lead me day by day,
Ever in Thine own good way;
Teach me to be pure and true,
Show me what I ought to do.
When in danger, make me brave,
Make me know that Thou canst save;
Keep me safely by Thy side;
Let me in Thy love abide.
When I’m tempted to do wrong,
Make me steadfast, wise, and strong;
And when all alone I stand,
Shield me with Thy mighty hand.
