Analysis of O My Lord



O My Lord
Author: Mark V. Markov

You are there for me
No need to wonder
Your mercy
Your love
Is in my life

O my Lord
with a sense of direction
I am in Your hands
O my Lord
I am under Your protection

A protection of the highest power
Day by day
Minute by minute
Hour by hour

Please Lord God lead me,
Guide me through.
In my life
I always need Your presence
I always need You

O my Lord
Please always have mercy on my soul
Hold me close
Never let me go
Keep me safe from all harm
Keep me safe from all wrong
O my Lord
Please keep me safe from all evil

I wanna do Your will
In love and deed
In complete truth
To the best of my ability
With a living faith
That always pleases You

Until the times comes
To let go of this earthly life
And to be forever
In eternal happiness
with other faithful believers

Until the time comes
To be with You O Lord Jesus Christ
My Lord of lords and King of kings
To be forever with Yahweh, Yeshua, Ruach Elohim
O to be with You,
My Lord God Creator Elohim.

You are there for me
No need to wonder
Your mercy
Your love
Is in my life

O my Lord
with a sense of direction
I am in Your hands
O my Lord
I am under Your protection

A protection of the highest power
Day by day
Minute by minute
Hour by hour

Please Lord God lead me,
Guide me through.
In my life
I always need Your presence
I always need You

O my Lord
Please always have mercy on my soul
Hold me close
Never let me go
Keep me safe from all harm
Keep me safe from all wrong
O my Lord
Please keep me safe from all evil

I wanna do Your will
In love and deed
In complete truth
To the best of my ability
With a living faith
That always pleases You...
