The strength to resist the night <br />The strength to endure the day <br />The strength to keep righteous paths in sight <br />The strength to take them without delay <br /> <br />The strength to find a purpose in life <br />The strength to find the truths it brings <br />The strength to kick away from strife <br />The strength to stabalize the rock it clings <br /> <br />The strength to light a friend’s day up <br />The strength to resist wrathful foes <br />The strength to fill a stranger’s dry cup <br />The strength to shun sin when it opposed <br /> <br />The strength to feel a injured man’s pain <br />The strength to hold a reject’s hand <br />The strength to act against any gain <br />The strength to love without demand <br /> <br />The strength to understand that our King <br />Has blessed us with more than we can contain <br />Therefore regardless what time may bring <br />The strength will continue to reign<br /><br />Anders Lim<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/philippians-4-13/
