Father, I claim them all:

The perfect peace that passes understanding,

The direction of my paths,

The mercy and grace to help me

In my time of need,

The working of all things together
for my good,

My every need supplied,

Your strength enabling me to do
all things.

May I do my part:

Keeping my mind on You,

Letting my requests be made known to You,

Trusting in You with all my heart,

Never trusting my own understanding,

Coming boldly unto Your throne.
