Hear My Prayer

Father hear my prayer today.

Make this hurt just go away.

The physical pain is enough to bear,

But this broken heart feels beyond repair.

I know miracles are within your power.

You're always with me in my darkest hour.

You've heard my every sob and cry.

You've even heard me ask you "Why?".

I don't know why I question you now.

I know that it's up to you somehow.

I need to trust my faith in you,

Because you always see me through.

I lift my eyes and hands to you,

To let you know my love is true,

Because you loved me first, I know,

Of all my sorrows, I can let go.

I lift my voice to heaven above

Knowing you're sending down your love

To bring me comfort from my pain

And remind me of your power again

I know my life is in good hands.

On your promises I will stand.

Thank you God for loving me.

Your obedient child, I will ever be.
