In the Night

In the middle of the night His love instructs me

He teaches me the way that I should go

He counsels me in every situation

And helps me understand what I don’t know

He whispers to me His truths, oh how gently

He lets me know what’s right and what is wrong

He gives to me a poem or devotion

And sometimes He gives to me a new song

I love the times I have with my Lord, Savior

I love to read His word and know His favor

I want to do the things He wants of me

I want to live with Him eternally

E’en though I’m old with many years advancing

He strengthens me so I can do His will

He gives me wisdom far beyond my stature

As I sit before Him quietly and still
