A Prayer Of Faith
Dear Lord,
Take me into your promised land;
introducing me to tomorrow;
give me the wisdom to understand;
the value of troubles and sorrow.
Whisk me into a special love to share;
grant my love an infinite boundary;
tell those around me, how much I care;
for you are creation’s foundry.
Remove from me, all of my doubt;
give me the faith to believe;
instill me with love, inside and out;
more than any other conceive.
Wash away all my stains of guilt;
without you; I’ve no place to go;
always deal with me; as thou wilt;
but especially, teach me to grow.
Take away all my useless desires;
I have but a limited time;
fill me with all passion’s fires;
make me into love, sublime.
Bless all of those; whom I hold dear;
may they be fruitful and multiply;
grant them faith, as death draws near;
promising their souls never die;
Most of all; give me strength to forgive;
the wisdom and vision to see;
burdened with guilt every day I live;
I pray others, can forgive me.
