My Prayer

When love has gone sour and sour as a burning wound That is left to heal on its own dear lord And rhythm has eluded me to the point of utter shame oh lord Your songs of praise bring me closer Your faithful words give me hope and Closer to your sanctuary I come oh lord Closer to you I come and need you my God I need you to hear my heart closer Come and rescue it oh lord Come cleanse me because I am yours and yours forever Make me an eternal flame lord Burning like an immortal soul For I know you truly From Genesis to Revelations oh lord I am your son who you created I am your servant to serve you for the glories of heaven I wake everyday dear lord Knowing that I need your saving grace From Genesis to Revelations oh lord You stand in mighty honor You overcome the enemy with saving grace oh lord You fight all the wars and battles that face your children In Exodus you deliver the Israelites oh lord So that slavery is not their eternal shame You bring salvation so that there is rejoicing and praise For your powerful name oh lord of lords When I kneel down before you My problems become insignificant oh lord They become nothing compared to your awesomeness oh lord The small voice that whispered to Moses was yours In the burning bush you appeared oh lord You appeared I shall wait to hear that voice too I will meditate on your promises oh lord Promises to heal my heart of hate Promises to forgive my sins and bring redemption oh lord Your promises to make me like you merciful God A beauty in your kingdom I will be oh lord A lovely Queen to rule in your kingdom. What you freely give oh lord, when temptation comes To thrust me from your arms I shall return and repent Because you make me like an eagle and I shall await Your heavenly kingdom oh lord With your ancient wisdom like john your servant, I am amazed By your revelations because you come to rule oh lord To rule as king of kings and lord of lords Alpha and omega, today and forever, hear me lord my prayer
