My Prayer

Awaken my soul Oh God
I am ready for your power
Awaken my mind Oh God
I am ready for your peace

No longer will I fade away
Today I take a stand
No longer will I be silent
Today I follow in your steps

Tired of the battle
Worn out by the war
But I will not abandon
I will not be shaken

I move as you want me
I only speak when witnessing
I break the chains holding me back
For time is short, and hell is eternal
