Help Me Father
Help me Father, for can't seem to find peace
You have given me so much and I should be content
But I feel scared, I am so uncertain
What is to become of me
Where am I going to end up, when everything is said
I know you have a plan for me, but sometimes I struggle to accept
I question everything you send my way, I fight what I know is best
You gave me the best friend I could have asked for
And I took him for granted
I threw words out, and never thought twice of how he would feel
Now that I have hurt him, I want to take everything I said back
But my pride is in the way again, blocking my path
I need your help Father to overcome this powerful force
I know what you want me to do, I want to do what is right
But I am too weak and scared that I won't be able to say what needs to be said
To you I now turn instead
Please give me the strength to put into words, all that is in my heart
Give the one that I have hurt a forgiving heart
A love for me, for I am at fault
I can't do anything without you
Nothing happens without your consent
So Father, please be with me
Tonight I need you beside me, fighting on my behalf
I need your strength to fight my proud and stubborn self
Make me humble
Give me words that are true and pure
Let me express how I feel without hurting him even more
I love him more then life itself, I don't want to cause him any more pain
Be with me father as I ask, I seek, I long for forgiveness
On you I lean, I have no strength on my own
You are my Fahter and my King
