TEACH ME THY WAY, O LORD

aku gak pinter Tuhan untuk ngerti pengajaran yang Kau berikan, yang ada aku marah-marah.. dodol banget! padahal Tuhan mau buat aku lebih pinter tapi aku malah curigaan sama Tuhan.  Tuhan walaupun aku sering dodol, gak ngerti2 maksudnya Tuhan, tapi aku mau terus Tuhan ajar. Tiap baca kesaksian orang, aku slalu bilang "Tuhan aku juga pengeeeeen ngalami yg kyk gt2, mau mau mau" tapi ketika Tuhan ksh aku malah ngomel2 nanya, "God, why why why?"  Aku gak mau dodol terus.. Roh Kudus ajarku untuk mengerti maksud Tuhan walaupun setengah mati ngajarin aku yang kadang lemot ini,,

Anyway, Lord,, Teach me YOUR way... dalam situasi dan kondisi apapun.. YA.. APAPPUN..  When I am sad, when earthly joys depart, in hours of loneliness, in failure or success,, when doubts and fear a rise, when storm clouds fill the skies, through sorrow, grief, and pain, until the race is run, until the journey's done..    TEACH ME THY WAY, O LORD

TEACH ME THY WAY, O LORD

Teach me thy way, O Lord, teach me thy way;
Thy guiding grace afford—teach me thy way.
Help me to walk aright, more by faith, less by sight;
lead me with heavenly light, teach me thy way.

When I am sad at heart, teach me thy way;
When earthly joys depart, teach me thy way.
In hours of loneliness, in times of dire distress,
in failure or success, teach me thy way.

When doubts and fears arise, teach me thy way;
When storm clouds fill the skies, teach me thy way.
Shine through the wind and rain, through sorrow, grief and pain;
make now my pathway plain, teach me thy way.

Long as my life shall last, teach me thy way;
Where’er my lot be cast, teach me thy way.
Until the race is run, until the journey’s done,
until the crown is won, teach me thy way.

Written in the early 20th century by Benjamin Ramsey, this hymn is a prayer that the Lord teach us His way.  This prayer is one that you will find several times in the Psalms.  Here are a few examples:

 

• Psalm 25:4 Show me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.
• Psalm 27:11 Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.
• Psalm 86:11 Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.
• Psalm 119:33 Teach me, O LORD, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end.
