Lord, Keep me safe.

Here is a poem, a direct prayer for safety, anchored in scripture.

Keep Me Safe

Keep me safe, O Lord, I pray, Throughout the night,throughout the day. Be the steady,guiding light, In my waking,in the night. "You are my shelter; from distress you will preserve me."(Psalm 32:7)

Keep me safe from hidden ways, Through uncertain,complex days. Let Your wisdom be my chart, Guard my going,guard my heart. "The Lord will keep you from all harm— he will watch over your life."(Psalm 121:7)

Keep me safe within Your hand, On shifting rock,or shifting sand. When I am weak,be my strength, Go to any fearful length. "The Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one."(2 Thessalonians 3:3)

Keep me safe, and in Your care, Hear and answer this my prayer. For my trust is in Your name, My fortress against any shame. "The name of the Lord is a fortified tower; the righteous run to it and are safe."(Proverbs 18:10)

Amen.
