This is my prayer
An offering of love
Rising to You my Lord
All of my thoughts
My fears and anxious ways
I give to You
I know that trusting
Means letting go
Give me the courage
To get out of the boat
And walk upon the rolling sea
As I look to you and away from me
So here I am
In all my contradictions
Afraid to live from the source
Of my convictions
All the plans I’ve made
And the masks I’ve worn
Count for nothing
Before You
I’m just a beggar
Standing at Your door
In need of some love
In need of some warm love
Be my God strengthen me
Let me lay my weary head
Against You now
This is my prayer an offering of love
Come close to me
