My Going Out and Coming In

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Simple are my thoughts tonight,

No grand, eloquent phrase.

Just simple thoughts and simple words,

All lifted in Your praise.

 

You brought through another day,

Keep my feet under me,

And offered me another chance

To be who I should be.

 

You lifted me when I was down,

Reminding me to smile.

You kept me safe while I travelled

Each wet and weary mile.

 

My going out and coming in

Both fell within Your view,

And I will settle in to sleep

Safely guarded by You.

 

Just simple thoughts and simple words

From an old weary soul,

And praises raised in gratitude

That I’m still safe and whole.

 

Psalm 121:8

The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forevermore.
