POETRY IN PRA...

POETRY IN PRAYER

My Lord and My God,

I come before you this day,

I lift up Holy Hands

To the Ancient of days!

One hour in Your presence

My dear Sweet Lord,

fills me with strength

to miss such, I cannot afford.

Help my friends Father,

I see them suffering so,

My heart cries out for them

As tears down their faces flow.

Encircle us Oh God,

from the storms that rage,

I see the battle stronger

As our enemies engage.

Draw us closer Lord,

As time is marching on,

Fill our hearts with love

Let us praise in Mighty song!

Let us not grow weary

as hardships they increase.

Keep us strong in you, Oh Lord,

for the battles never cease!

You are Our strength, Oh God,

We must keep our eyes on You,

Though tested and tried,

You have promised to see us through.

Help those battle scarred,

Lift up their weary hands,

Give us wisdom, Mighty God,

so we may understand.

Help us, Oh Father

Not to succomb,

to temptations around us

though many will come!

Keep us pure,

Stedfast and strong,

As we finish the course,

We know to whom we belong!

I see Oceans churning,

men’s hearts filled with fear,

It means only one thing,

Your coming is Near!

I bow down before you,

Praising your Holy Name,

Your voice echoes inside me,

Child hold on, I am coming again!
