God's Heart
Do not forsake me
O my lord
May you tender your heart
With kindness to me
May my life be lived
Each day as it should
Take away all temptation
That my mind would find
Rest
May my desire be
To be always pleasing
To you
It’s not always easy
To keep my thoughts pure
But each day may I feel
A little less myself
And more of you
Let me O Lord
Touch the untouchables
Smile to those who have forgotten its warmth
Look gently into eyes that look downward
And stand beside those that need strength
In all these may I do it with your anointing
Not my will
That you will be given the glory
amen
