My Prayer

Hey Lord,



are you up there?



I know the truth,



but do you really care?



I pray to you every day



about what I'm going through,



and I look to heaven



but do I really know you?



I wish I could answer that with truth,



but I have doubted you ever since youth.



How is it that you're here,



but I cant see you?



What about me?



Aren't I important too?



How is it when I fall and reel,



that I know you feel the pain I feel?



When life goes away,



and all that's left is you,



how will I know



that I can see you?



Lord you know the pain I feel



because you feel it too,



so let's make a deal.



You take my pain from me,



and I'll trust in you.  



For I wish to live with you in heaven



forever and ever, Amen

Again with the simple, the sincere, the honest. This is lovely Chad, it really touched me, that deal is on the tip of my tongue every day.
