My Talk With God

My Talk With God Hands folded together I kneel to pray Something I do Every morning of every day Yet this morning I feel urgency An aching to start Talking to God About what’s on my heart Burdens and fears What run so deep Controlling my mind When I try to sleep Fear of tomorrow Worries for today Clouds of uncertainty That gets in my way The Lord knows I can’t control What is out of my reach So I pray for guidance And the ability to teach Lord, calm the waters That race inside my mind Teach me faith In trying times Cover my family and me In your protecting hand Give me a sense of calmness Like only you can
