A Petition To My Father

I try to drive, but I know I’m not fit. The road is bumpy, who’ll take me through? I try to move forward, but I end up in a ditch. The weather is foggy, who else will lead me but you? I need you forever in my life, Who else guides me all the way, till I’m through? You are always there for me because of your love. Forever I desire nothing else, but only you. Just as the driver controls the wheels of his car, Take my life as such and guide me on the path which Thou has chosen for me. And just as the pigeon feed her babies with food from her mouth, Feed me with the word of Thy mouth for in Thy Word is life. A co-pilot? No! I don’t need a co-pilot, I need You to come and live in my heart, I do not want my ways to be of just a lot, Just direct my path to the place where Thou art. Just as I am, I come to Thee, I accept that I have sinned, Please cleanse and set me free, So that to the ground, I’ll not be pinned. I never wanna leave Your presence, Keep me in your light, Free me from ill conscience, Guide me to follow Your path. Just as the followers of a shepherd are the sheep, So are the followers of Jesus Christ Christians. If I call myself a Christian indeed, Let Jesus Christ be the only One I need. Arise o my soul, Be strong and march forward. Or else life would be a woe, So always remember the direction to move, ‘forward’. What kind of God is this? That what ‘ere that I do is filthy in His eyes? Being destined to destruction like a fish, All I need is Your mercy to make me cold new as Ice. Upon all my crimes You still came to die for me, And has made me as valuable as Yourself, You’ve made me know that You even love me more than I do love myself, I now pray that to Your sanctuary, You bring me. Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, Jesus being my provider, I need not to be in sorrow, He’ll take care of me forever. Born in white, I am asked to journey in mud, How am I supposed to walk in mud without soiling myself? I saw a Man, who said He’ll make me even better than just a lad, He said “all you’ve got to do is to repent and ask for it yourself”. There’s power in His voice! He commandeth the storm to be quiet, It is not with mere noise, But with grace from where He abideth.
