Oh Lord I know you can see that the way you'd like me to be is not easy, or even achieved fast, but to do so I must put away my past. I will place it on the cross and count not my loss for I am now debt free and have gained a new me. A large price for me you did pay, Lord Jesus show me the way lead me back to you when I fall astray and encourage me to ceaselessly pray keeping my eyes fixed on you and submitting everything i do to Jesus, Lord, my saviour Lamb and King who shelters me behind his wing. Protect me from the evil one let him not get an inch of fun for only you are worthy - against his temptations i must be sturdy. Remind me daily to say goodbye to that disease of the tongue - the lie, to speak only the truth, for nothing but your word is sooth. And also Lord do away with pride for from you i simply cannot hide. Let my lips praise you alone in a thanksgiving and grateful tone (this life on earth is just a loan) so that profanity, lust and the old man die and no more will i so sorrowfully sigh but rather exalt your name on high and by your victory every demon defy. Oh Lord teach me to repent so that under these sins I won't be bent but instead your laws obey and in your presence desire to stay. Cleanse me of evil and make me clean so that your glory to the world may be seen. Grant me strength to endure the race, and set before me a steady pace that I may for holiness continually thirst - inside me the joy of salvation always burst and the splendour of your love decend upon me like a dove. I want to love you more and more over your world help me each day to pre now your guidance i will seek please Lord teach me to be meek, correct me when I wrong, and stay with me forever long as I sing to your my love this song. |

The line "I will place it on the cross" immediately brought my mind to this thing that we did in our youth group at church. I made a cross out of wood about 5 feet tall, and had everyone confess their sins ona piece of paper, fold it up and nail it on the cross...it went along with a whole message, but it went over very well! I would like to raise my voice and sing with you! ------------------ ~*~ Hell is not a place of fire and a devil with a tail and horns. But a place of torment because the light of God is gone. To escape this, accept the blood of Jesus Christ! ~*~ |

What an embracing and touching poetic prayer you are offering up here...so many right concerns and holy aspirations--thank you for allowing us to share in your heavenward thoughts. It is an uplift to us all, i'm sure. ------------------ "Our Creativity points to a Higher Creator--we couldn't have just happened, and for what ability we may possess--to God be the glory." -dlw- |
