Sustained By Thee**

Lord, though one life may look better
than another,
let us not take lightly the burdens
of our sisters and brothers.
Each life has its certain struggles
and pain,
that throughout its passing will
surely reign.

The outside trappings of those
we might see,
only hide the unseen cares of
lives sustained by Thee.
Let us not forget what our friends
daily walk through,
and take their petitions freely
and humbly before You.

Lord, help me remember how fragile
life can be,
and how unsteady are all our paths
to eternity.
Help us see each other as
forgiven and free,
You see us all the same and
promise us liberty.
                              

Psalm 55:22 "Cast your cares on the Lord
and he will sustain you; he will never
let the righteous fall."
