Let perseverance set the pace.

 

In your name, I see his height,
Sharper mind, a guiding light.
Cleverer, wiser, full of skill,
So many lessons I must fulfill.

Patience, strength—he shows the way,
A light to follow, come what may.
I’ll take his positivity, let it stay,
Ignore the shadows that cloud the day.

He is expert, he is true,
I will gain, Lord, help me pursue.
Yet in my heart, a storm still brews,
Negativity lingers, seeds of blues.

He seldom answers, leaves me confused,
While others get the care I’ve not used.
In classes, gestures favor some,
Yet I must hold—my work not done.

So, Lord, in your name, let me see,
Focus on the good, let bitterness flee.
Work hard, push forward, till the end,
On proposals, reviews, my soul I’ll lend.

Let every struggle teach me grace,
Let perseverance set the pace.
In your name, may I rise above,
With patience, strength, and endless love.
