Where Do We Go Now?
Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)
Lord my arms are way too short
To fight a holy battle
These arms of flesh aren’t quick enough
To stop the serpent’s rattle
So, show me what you want from me
And give me strength to do it
I know Your words are powerful
Just show me how to use them
I want to lead the lost sheep back
To worship in Your temple
So, I will continue in Your Word
To find a good example
