My Prayer

In This Desperate Hour
I Call For Your Attention
Just A Moment Of Your Time
To Release All This Tension.
I'll Admit I Need Your Help
And Cannot Fight Alone.
This Heart Is Sore And Broken
That Once Was Made Of Stone.
It's Hard To Fix Myself.
I'm Giving Up On Trying.
I Know This Sounds Absurd
But I Think My Heart Is Dying.
The Pulse Is Slowing Down
And It Seems To Hurt To Breathe
A Task I Took For Granite
And Did With Complete Ease.
I'm Staring Up At You
And I Know You're Staring Back.
Please Return To Me My Life
And Strength I Seem To Lack.
You're Quite A Hero To Most
Although You Are Not Seen.
Your Voice Is Speaking Loudest
As If Addressed To Me.
So Here I Stand Before You
Asking For The Chance
To Turn Around What Is Now Gone
Although That Option Passed.
This May Be On Short Notice,
But I Could Use Some Help
To Seize This Pain I'm Feeling
So I Can Save Myself.
I Know You're Very Busy
And I Need To Wait In Line,
But I'm Afraid, Lord
There Isn't That Much Time.
I Just Hope That You'll Listen
As I Have Done For You
And Point The Way To Go For Me
Or At Least Some Elmer's Glue.
For My Heart Has Had Enough
And It's Time To Try To Fix
This Faint Pulse That I Feel
Before The Chance Is Missed.
So Please Reply Back To Me
Before I Fade Away.
Take Your Time, I Don't Mind
As I Wait Here And Pray..
