Forgive Me Father

Oh Father please forgive me
For you know what I have done
This is what I asked
From God's most Holy Son.

Remember when I thought
That you had left me too
Then I thought there is nothing left
So that is when I cursed you.

I was angry and I was so afraid
And then I did not care
For what was right or what was God's
And I lost my faith in prayer.

So I thank the Lord today
For never letting me go
He had love and faith in all of me
And I am alive to make it so.
