Support my claims, O God,
that I have tried followed you path truly,
and trust your guidance without question.
Search my heart,
and let in show my unending love for you,
and my faithfulness to your plan.
I cannot abide people
who spread hate in your name.
I hate to see people hurting one another,
and will not stand by as people doing wrong.
I try to maintain innocence from these ill deeds,
and worship you for your guidance,
singing songs of praise and thanksgiving
for the example you have set.
God, I love the path you have chosen for me
calling me to care and compassion.
Help me to live a life of love
so that I may follow in your righteousness.
As long as I have you to guide me
I will walk truly with confidence.
You set a clear path before me,
and for that I am truly grateful.
