My Greatest Prayer
I would like to share with you a way in which I express myself...through the poems that I write. I pray God will bless you with these words as he did me.
My Greatest Prayer
Consume me with You Lord
each moment that I breathe.
Help me understand
that You are all I need.
Let me lay my life down
right before your feet.
Give me eyes Lord,
that You are all I see.
Give me a hunger that
no earthly feast will satisfy.
Give me a thirst that
even the longest river will leave me dry.
Let nothing come before You
in all that I crave.
Help me to cling to You
when I just can't see the way.
Shine a light within me
that my shame could not survive.
Heal the deepest parts of me
where my darkest guilt resides.
Let nothing else I breathe
fill me like You do.
Let my constant thoughts Lord
be centered only on You.
When the darkness surrounds me
speak it away so I am free.
When I am lost and wandering
come, come and find me.
I give you all that I am Lord
and all that I can be.
I give you everything within
the deepest parts of me.
Let Your love flow through me
that heals everything within.
Then let it flow out from me
and circle back again.
