The Hikers Prayer
Adapted from the 23rd Psalm
The LORD is my guide,
I have all that I need,
He leads me to rest in green meadows,
He leads me along trickling streams,
He strengthens me,
He guides me down smooth trails,
Reminding me of His devotion,
As I hike through valleys shadowed by storms,
I fear no misfortune, for You are my guide,
Your well-worn staff shows Your experience,
And I take comfort,
You prepare a feast for me,
At the end of a long treacherous day,
You sooth me with a hot drink,
Surely Your goodness and care,
Will always be there,
And I will follow in Your footsteps,
Every day of my life.
