Laurie Ginn Poet I do not know?

O Lord

When my heart grieves in pain 
  O Lord I will come to you
When I have more questions than answers
  O Lord I will come to you

When I have more fear than faith
  O Lord I will come to you
When my doubts cause me anguish
  O Lord I will come to you

When I can’t fix my problems
  O Lord I will come to you
When I’ve walked in disobedience
  O Lord I will come to you

When I’ve caused others pain
  O Lord I will come to you
When I’ve demanded my own way
  O Lord will I come to you

Because You alone are my healer, my stronghold, my shelter, my peace, my salvation, my 
provider, my righteousness, my comforter, my counselor, my deliverer, my GOD

Forgive me Father for I fall short of your will daily
And ask forgiveness
amen
