Lord I
Ask
by
Barbara Philbrook
Lord I ask
You to close my eyes that I may not see,
anything that would discourage me.
Please
effectively block my ears,
that I will not hear anything that causes fears.
Seal my
eyes that they may not shed,
tears brought on by sadness or dread.
Block all
feelings within me,
that I will not be harmed by adversity.
Open my
eyes to the beauty and love,
sent to us from Heaven above.
Make my
ears hear Your still small voice,
and give discernment so I can make the right choice.
Let the
tears of joy and exultation,
flow freely so others can see my jubilation.
Make me
sensitive to other's needs and hurts,
and all the time sensitive not just in spurts.
I'm asking
that the negative in life not effect me,
and that the positive and good I pass on abundantly.
May others
see You, Your love, and what it's done,
since I accepted salvation from Your Son.
Lord I ask
to be a living and loving testimony,
of what occurs when we accept Thee.
