Lord I Need Your Help

This journey oh Lord is so dark and so very lonely.

I do not understand and I know not the reason that it should be this way.

I only ask that you lend the grace of your ear to me whilst I humbly pray.

I know with certainty that fear oh Lord is the complete opposite of faith.

Yet I am so weak sometimes that another day I fear I shall not make.

So heed this supplication Lord and deliver NOW this house in which I stand.

For Lord I am but a whisper on the lips of eternity and my soul…my weeping soul is mired helplessly in sinking sand.

Oh God, the very joy that gladdens my heart needs your touch this very night.

And Lord you know me better than I know myself…

You know my heart, and you know that I would gladly give of my life for Leah

So give her holy purification in that a whole host of her days are golden and bright.

I try to be strong Lord; I try so hard to understand.

Help me Lord…help me and deliver me and my wife.

Deliver us from the fear that has consumed our land.

Release us from this infirmity that has shadowed our life.

You say Lord that I should only believe…God I do, I really do.

So count this voice not as one of gloom but as a voice of praise in thanksgiving to you.

For I am just talking my heart to you dear God; and Lord I truly do believe.

I believe that your hand will be on Leah tonight and I oh Lord BELIEVE that everything will be alright.
