Here and Now

Here and now, I can know what my life is about.
I can be assured of my mission, my true route.
If I pray and study and do what God requires.
I will start, I will move, in tune with God's desires.
I'll seek growth; keep moving, though challenged by mistakes.
I will learn, prayerfully to discern as I do what it takes.
Though the sea boils high as it tries to engulf me,
I'll exert all of my energy, vigorously.

Here and now, I can know what I am meant to do.
I can pray and not faint. I can know what is true.
Dear Father, consecrate what I do, to Thy wise care.
May what I do perform be for my soul's welfare.
With one line at a time I will try with my might.
I'll trust Thee to help me keep my goal in clear sight.
I'll seek not for riches, But, I'll seek for Thy wisdom.
This I'll pray. Then I'll say “Look out world, Here I come.”,
