When I Bow my Knees


At night when I bow my knees And come to You in prayer, A gentle calm surrounds me As I leave my burdens there. My Creator, God, and Lord; My Savior, Father, and Friend. Your mercies endure forever; You are loving to no end. Though trials shake me And temptations are all around, I only need to tell You, For only in You is peace found. Though I kneel in the dark With no human prescence near, I am never alone or lonely, For God, my best Friend, is here. When I finally stop to sleep, I know I have done what is best, All I have to do is pray, And God will take care of the rest.
