DEAR LORD

Dear Lord, my heart is heavy,
As I look around today.
So many that You love,
Seem to have lost their way.

The news is full of stories,
About those who maim or kill.
A gunman in a school yard,
Children now are stilled.

When You made the world, Lord,
And put it in man's care,
You did it out of love, Lord,
A love I guess we didn't share.

Now, so many live in darkness,
Secrets locked in hardened hearts,
Please, reach down and touch them,
And let them make new starts.

No matter how their lives are now,
No matter what their sin,
Draw them to Your forgiveness, Lord,
And put Your love within.
