Best Laid Plans

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A quiet prayer I lift tonight.

Tomorrow’s gone astray,

And it is not even here yet.

That’s why I need to pray.

 

The plans all seemed to be in place

And then they went awry.

Sometimes I find I’m wondering

Why I still even try.

 

But You are known for miracles,

Even the little kind.

That’s all I’m asking for tonight,

A little peace of mind.

 

Remind me that all of my plans

Are nothing without You.

Though I may put my plans in place,

That’s all that I can do.

 

If I make plans outside Your will,

Then those plans will fall through.

Tonight, my prayer is that Your plans

Will become my plans, too.

 

Proverbs 19:21

Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.
