Lord I ask You to be with me through this last trial.
I ask You to walk with me on my final earthly mile.
So many times You have come when You heard me call,
But Lord this time I feel so alone, please don’t let me fall.
Hold out Your loving hand, lead me to eternal sleep.
Take my fear, toss it away, make me Yours to keep.
Help me climb this mountain as it will be my last.
Forgive me Lord for all my sins, put them in the past.
Let me be in Your presence as I go to my resting place.
Just let me feel You Lord, I don't have to see Your face.
I cannot lie to You and say I have no mortal fear.
I just need to know Lord that You are ever near.
Give me faith to know You’re there, let me drink from that fountain.
Lord, I need your strength to help me climb this final mountain.
