She Looks Up To Me

She looks up to me, Lord,
So I look up to You;
This precious child is watching
All I say and do.

May all my words and deeds
To Your Holy Word be true;
May all she sees in me
Be a clear reflection of You.

She means the world to me,
And I know You love her too;
She looks up to me, Lord,
So I look up to You.

But if anyone causes one of these
little ones who believe in me to sin,
it would be better for him to have a
large millstone hung around his neck
and to be drowned in the depths of
the sea. (Matthew 18:6)

Another Day

Lord, as I face another day,
A gift from You to me,
I pray for grace to serve you well
And do it cheerfully.

I pray that every moment
Will be spent in service to you,
That I will be able to reflect Your love
In all I say and do.

May my words be soft and gentle,
And my thoughts and deeds be kind.
May others see the light of Your love
Shining through this heart of mine.

Lord, I ask that You guide me
Throughout the day ahead,
That I might bring You glory
So others to You might be led.

For we are God’s workmanship, created
in Christ Jesus to do good works, which
God prepared in advance for us to do.
(Ephesians 2:10)
