ON MY KNEES AGAIN
I thank you Lord for giving me
A chance to thank you on my knee
When at night I do forget
I wake and know I will regret
To thank you for this very day
I pray you hear me when I say
I thank you Lord for everything.
I have to thank you for the bad
But Lord I know you’ll always be
Beside me always loving me.
You are the light within my soul
I’ll shout it from the highest knoll.
When things don’t go the way I plan,
I wait for you Lord, yes I can.
At night I need to let it be
Don’t take it back Lord
You shall see.
That when I give it back to you
I need to wait and let it be,
You’ll answer ever prayer I say
But always when it’s Your own way.

This is a real blessing! You've expressed in brevity of verse the transition of your heart's struggle in prayer - from your own perspective- then moving on to allign it with God's will. From Thanks to praise, from praise to hope, and finally to surrender and peace. You write well!
