He looks upon us,

From His #Heavenly height.

#Sustaining all trust,

A #Guiding #Light.

My children's frail hand,

My wife's gentle smile.

He helps me to stand,

#Watching awhile.

Before the #Icon,

I whisper my plea.

For #Strength to go on,

For my little family.

He knows every fear,

Each hope that takes flight.

He holds them so dear,

Through darkness and light.

Lord of all things seen,

Lord of all things unseen.

You are the serene,

#Foundation, the keen.

Protect them, embrace,

From hurt and from wrong.

By Your #Saving grace,

Where they truly belong.
