A Prayer

Before i go  to bed and 
lay
There is something i 
have  to say
To  my God so i kneel 
and pray
That his mercy comes  
my way

O! Lord  my father
I have no other
Friends all gone
I see no one
Lord i am helpless
So i come  to you whose 
mercy is endless
Problems all over, 
choking
So i have come  to you 
hoping
For a brighter day
That  your mercy comes  
my way

So close to what I pray. May God Bless you today and everyday my friend. You are never alone. I also believe a Guardian Angel walks with you at all times. I talk to mine. ~ Debbie K.
