My Prayer

Now this is something that I have to say
Lord God you seem so far away
I know you are here I am told by Your book
But Lord I can’t see you when I look

Am I messed up? Faulty at best?
Is there a lack of effort and sin in my chest?
All I want is to see Your face
Reach up and experience Your grace

I ask You Lord that You make Yourself known
And soften my heart so I know when You are shown
Lord, it gets so hard living blind
Please let me see You for the first true time

I know I talk and sound like a man
But You know me Lord for what I really am
So please hear this cry of Your son
Pull me closer so we may live as one

Lord I know I’ve failed in the past
And I can’t promise it will be my last
In You alone I want to live and die
Again Lord please hear this cry

To most people it’s me running my mouth
But to You O God it’s a cry from the south
Find me Lord and hold me close
Change my mind and heart so that I may boast

Not about me or the life that I live
But about You and the love You give
Lord this is my repeated prayer
Every time I say it I feel so bare

I am sorry for the wrong I’ve done in the past
Let me move on and not regress
I can’t wait to see your kingdom so pure
And leave my earthly caricature
