My Lord I call to You,
like You always said I could.
Although there were times I didn't,
even when I knew I should.
I come to You, to speak my prayer,
me, Your scared, lost child.
Into Your loving arms I run,
You, so gentle and mild.
Seeking Your face,
and its warm, caring glow.
I ask for Your guidance Lord,
because I'm feeling so low.
So Lord, hear my prayer,
this cry that comes from my heart.
I want to be free from pain,
but I don't know where to start.
Please take away this affliction,
that lives within me.
From this horrible disease,
I long to be set free.
Take it away for me Lord,
release me from its chains.
I want to stop hurting,
and be me once again.
My prayer it is now spoken,
my feelings I tried to show.
And Lord, yes I am aware,
sometimes the answer is "No."
