Father Eternal Light

Lord Heavenly Father
Have mercy on me
Bless me so that I may see
So I may be worthy of your undying praise
Show me light within the darkness
Break the shackles upon my weary feet
Dry the tears that pour so heavily like roaring waters yet so afraid
Breathe into me Lord the breath of everlasting life
So I may the child of grace shall I never fear You even upon deaths watch
Keep me near and close to You So that I may be the one that seeks Your face
