25 Lord, I put my life in your hands.^[b]
²    I trust in you, my God,

⁴Lord, help me learn your ways.
    Show me how you want me to live.
⁵Guide me and teach me your truths.
    You are my God, my Savior.
    You are the one I have been waiting for.
⁶Remember to be kind to me, Lord.
    Show me the tender love that you have always had.
⁷Don’t remember the sinful things I did when I was young.
    Because you are good, Lord, remember me with your faithful love.
