My Prayer


every night i recommit my life to You
and every morning i wake up anew
but every day by the end of the night
my life is agian filled with sorrow and strife
its an unending cycle of pain and delusion
the world around me surrounds me
with chaos and confusion
You're the one thing true and steadfast
You're the only thing that will ever last
it seems every day life gets harder
and every day the evil gets stronger
but every time i cry out to You
i hear You tell me what to do
i trust You and You're pleasing perfect plan
You know what You're doing and i'm only human.
i will follow where You lead
You are everything i need.
You turn my weeping into laughter
You are a kind and perfect master.
i'm Yours until the day i day
pierce my ear at Your door to signify
i came to You begging to be Your slave
but You made me Your child with You Son's grave.
so now i call out with outstretched arms
hold me close and keep me safe from harm
ease my sorrow and heal my pain
all this i pray
in Your Son's name,
Amen.
