Praying

The Lord renews me and fills my soul with compassion.
How can you allow me to look upon them with your eyes?
How can you allow me to love them with your love?
Its overpowering, I cannot get enough.

Wake me in the mornings O God.
Tuck me in at night.
I need your strength Father, I need your reassurance.

Give me Holy dreams.
Dreams of You.

Hold me in Your arms, pressed against Your chest.
Wake me with scriptures and worship songs.

Let me live life in Your presence and die without it.




Psalm 13
A David Psalm
1-2 Long enough, God— you've ignored me long enough.
I've looked at the back of your head
long enough. Long enough
I've carried this ton of trouble,
lived with a stomach full of pain.
Long enough my arrogant enemies
have looked down their noses at me.

3-4 Take a good look at me, God, my God;
I want to look life in the eye,
So no enemy can get the best of me
or laugh when I fall on my face.

5-6 I've thrown myself headlong into your arms—
I'm celebrating your rescue.
I'm singing at the top of my lungs,
I'm so full of answered prayers.
