Jesus - For Thy Pleasure
Dear Jesus for thy pleasure I pray
that I can be of good stock.
For your pleasure I hope I can open doors
of faith that will never be to me locked.

I pray that I will be worthy enough to be
in your favor 'til my dying day.
Then in a twinkling of an eye, my spirit
to You will be on its way.

For thy pleasure, Jesus, let me follow the
path of righteousness until that day arrives.
Help me Lord, to be able to help
others along in their lives.

I am asking nothing for gain or fame -
I am asking You to let me be closer to You.
For thy pleasure Lord, may I serve
You by the things that I  do.

I don't want my life to end up being of
little worth - may I in the faith excel.
Show me the way to be a godly person
and help others to know Your story well!
