When God won’t heed a prayer..
what do I say?
My mind runs…struggles to escape
but my brave heart still wants to stay.
What if I fail to go along with You in your play?
Blinded by my own helplessness..I can’t see the path. Hold my hand as I can’t walk.
Kindle my heart.. light my intellect with your fire…
when my strength deserts me…
my thoughts deceive me…
darkness engulfs me…
A debt…
I have come here to pay…
Help me as I am lost and frail…
Help me break the chains of Dismay..
Help this night to break into a day.
