When I Bow my Knees
At night when I bow my knees
And come to You in prayer,
A gentle calm surrounds me
As I leave my burdens there.
My Creator, God, and Lord;
My Savior, Father, and Friend.
Your mercies endure forever;
You are loving to no end.
Though trials shake me
And temptations are all around,
I only need to tell You,
For only in You is peace found.
Though I kneel in the dark
With no human prescence near,
I am never alone or lonely,
For God, my best Friend, is here.
When I finally stop to sleep,
I know I have done what is best,
All I have to do is pray,
And God will take care of the rest.
