Here are two prayers or poems that I have saved from long ago. They were sent to me by my sister-in-law about 7-8 years ago. I do not know the aurther or aurthers, nor do I know the titles. I tried to look them up but found nothing online.
Help me now lord, I ask, oh so humble.
Demolish the stones on which that I stumble.
Take my hand and lead me now,
away from my sins for short of glory art thou. (I believe they used the word 'thou' wrongly refering to their sin, but needed something to go with 'now')
I trust in you lord, to pick me up from the rubble,
and comfort me in my deep darkest trouble.
I glorify your name. Show me what more I need to do,
for I deem unworthy to be in the presence of you.
Thank you, oh Christ, for salvation so sweet,
for paying the price of this mere mortal obsolete.
The past is a rock but today is wet clay,
which I will mold in your name for that is the way.
He walks with us, he is our comfort.
The road of life may take us where we do not care to go.
Up rocky paths, down darkened trails our steps unsure and slow.
But our dear Lord extended his hands to hold, to help, to guide us.
We never have to feel alone for he walks close beside us.
