Lord Please Pray For Me

I said Lord there are no earthly words left for me to say
I'm to the point now where I don't know how to pray
I just don't understand it Lord my heart is badly torn
The more I strive to trust in You the more my faith is worn
I know You have no favorites Your word is plain to see
What You have done for others Lord You can do for me
I know You are able Lord and I know You're in control
Yet I need to know You're willing as I bear to You my soul
So Lord I come before You now humbled at Your throne
Asking You to hold me Lord I feel so alone
I'm grateful for the prayers of friends and loving family
But this one thing I ask You Lord would You please pray for me
His answer was My precious child I say unto you
No matter what it looks like now I'm going to see you through
Cast your every care on Me your pain I understand
Remember that I'm holding you in My nail scarred hand.
