Oh Lord I know I'm just a Dot.
A speck upon life's sea and
My life on earth is just
A breath besides eternity
So help me take the breath I have
And use it all for Thee
And teach my lips just how to pray
My eyes just how to see.
When others need my help, oh Lord
Help me not to sherk.
The path of life you have planned for me while I'm here upon this earth. For being a help to others as You're a help to me.
Will show the world the love of God that's in this dot that's me.
And when I've lived this instant here, this little breath of life.
In this old world of pain and woe it's misery and it's strife, oh I must know just where I stand that none can take my place to look upon thy beauty Lord the beauty of Thy face.
Composed and Written by Thelma Trantham 1958
