My Lord God

I have no idea where I am going

I do not see the road ahead of me.

I cannot know for certain where it

will end.

Nor do I really know myself,

and the fact that I think I am following

your will does not mean that I am

actually doing so.

But I believe that the desire to please

you does in fact please you.

And I hope that I have the desire in all

that I am doing.

And I know that if I do this,

you will lead me by the right road

though I may know nothing about it.

Therefore, will I trust you always

though I may seem to be lost

and in the shadow of death,

I will not fear,

for you are every with me

and you will never leave me

to face my perils alone.

                            Thomas Merton
