Stay with me, Lord
In Your Presence, be
So, I don’t forget You
For I do, easily
Stay with me, Lord
Because I am weak
For I fall often
Your strength, I seek
Stay with me, Lord
My life, You fashion
For without You
I am without passion
Stay with me, Lord
For You are my light
And without you
I’m lost in the night
Stay with me, Lord
To show me Your will
To hear Your voice
And follow You, still
Stay with me, Lord
For I love thee
Let me always stay
In Your company
Stay with me, Lord
If You wish me to
Always to be
Faithful to You
Stay with me, Lord
Let my poor soul rest
Place of consoling
Your love be my nest
Stay with me, Lord
As life passes through
Renewing my strength
Never stop needing You
It’s getting late
Death waits its trial
I fear the darkness
In this night of exile
Stay with me tonight
My Jesus, pursue
In life and its dangers
My Lord, I need You
Let me see You
In the breaking of bread
Light through the darkness
Your joy keeps heart fed
Stay with me, Lord
When death that I face
United to You
By love and by grace
Stay with me Jesus
No consolation is due
But gift of Your Presence
This, I ask of You!
Stay with me Lord
You alone, I adore
Your grace and your will
For You more and more
With a firm love
All my heart perfectly
Continue to love You
Throughout eternity
Amen.
Amen. Amen.

This is beautiful Daryl… how wonderful it is that prayers do come from the Holy Spirit that enable us to pray anew someone else’s prayer according to our inspiration. God bless you more. I love your poems. Please allow me to share them too.

Thank you Daryl. I have long loved that prayer. Padre Pio is a favourite Saint of ours and we adopted him as patron saint of our blog site. I felt it would be neccessary to have his intercession.
