My Lord God,
I have no idea
where I am going.
I do not see the road ahead of me.
I cannot know for certain where
it will end. Nor do I really know myself,
and the fact that I think that I am following your will
does not mean I am actually doing so.
But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact
please you.
And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing. I hope
that I will never do anything apart from that desire.
And I know that if I do this
you will lead me by the right road though I may know
nothing about it.
Therefore will I trust you always though
I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death.
I will not fear, for you are ever with me,
and you will never leave me
to face my perils alone.
