Heavenly Father,
Do you hear me now...?
I have so much to thank for,
Hope to find words somehow.
Every morning you send Sun
To greet my day with light,
Every night the darkness
Follows your command.
You show me the way
Through the darkest path,
You forgive when I fail
And fall short of your plan.
You give me the strength
When I can bear no more,
You bless me with answers
Which I always search for.
You are always there
Ready to lift me up,
From chaos and despair,
You bring peace to my heart.
I handed you my life,
And it is not a belief;
It’s knowledge deep in heart
That you will be there for me.
You’ve always been so patient
With all my pleadings, Father,
Today I have only one:
Let us love each other.
