Should You Take Me

If I should die today Lord Perfect Let me die a poet Let me write every episode of my life Hoping to bring an end to strife. Let my pieces people read Let they heed To bring forth good seed. Should you take me Lord. Let me speak every word Let me read every lip Let every memory I keep Lord this I pray Should you take me away. If I should go Let me reap what I sow Let me see my seed grow Let me go in piece Should this be my last piece. I have written love and hurt I have written light and darkness I have written hope and desperation Lord when you take me finally Let my works stay permanently Lord bless the works of my words. And when I go dear Lord Keep safe ones I loved Give them high happiness Take away their stress Let them live holy For we are all yours wholly. This is my humble prayer Should you take me.
