When life shows no way to go,
Remind me to create mine,
Redeem my smile so that I don't feel fake,
Teach me not to forget my problems but deal with them.

Give me strength,
Make me feel like a soldier I was born to be,
Show me a way to select my battles in order for me not to waste time on unimportant ones.

So that when my name is called I leave with no regrets,
So that when my name is called I leave a happy man,
Dear God,
You know more than I do.
Therefore do more than I can.
