I have no cup to drink from

No ancestral house to return to

Please let my portion come from You

And my fill be Your word

Here to there I go searching

When what I seek has always been here with me

The heavens and earth and all in between

Yet my secure place is with You

Giver of life, Master of all plans

I have but me to give ,

Yet it was You who formed me

Accept me as a servant Most merciful One

Wash my impurities away

Allow me to be valiant

And find solitude in only You

Humble to know this life of mine is on borrowed time

And this body will return to earth

I have no claim except the oath You made between man and You

Bless me to be a covenant keeper

And not a trust breaker

Sanction my kinsmen to be Knowledge and Wisdom

Set a straight path through my meekness

Although the designs in my mind are many

Let me not lean on my own understanding

But your Faithfulness
