The Lord Has A Plan
Dear Lord, I pray that I can start over
and do better with my eating.
Night after night I eat too much
and it's defeating.

Lord, I'm asking You for help
so I can stop overeating again.
Too much of anything, we're told,
can be a sin.

Help me get up and exercise
and gain ground in my battle with my fat.
I need to get rid of eighty-three pounds
and Lord, we both know where it is at.

Come Lord Jesus, and be my guest
all day long be with me.
I need Your help to get rid of these chains
so I can be free.

Give me the willpower to stay away
from extra food all I can.
Lord, You can do anything - You are my Great One,
and for us all You have a plan.
