This prayer; dear god

by Kristen   Jan 15, 2005


It rains from time to time
and i always wonder if you're crying
you told me i had to be strong
so baby, i have been trying
but i don't know how I'm getting by
these tears have failed to cease
and I'm sure i shall see you again someday
but even this cannot bring me peace
because me with you was always right
there is no one else quite like you
and there is no one in this world
that makes my heart feel the way you do
there is no soul more beautiful
not a single thing that could compare
and every night i lay down to sleep
i never forget to say this prayer;
please god grant me the serenity
to forgive the path you've chose
and please bless my aching heart
for this is where love grows
and please give me the strength
in hopes that i shall continue this fight
and when the road gets dark and lonely
please return to me, my sight
god grant me faith and hope
for these both i am in need
please god, i do not ask for a garden
to heal i shall only require the seed
and please preserve me from this destruction
oh god, please return to me, salvation
i only want to make it through the night
i shall offer you no explanation
and if ever i grow weak and weary
if things are so hard i cannot smile
i ask you to please lift me up above
and carry me with you for awhile
even still, if after all this is granted
it seems i still cannot stand upon my own
then i pray you'll take me with you
because i cannot go on if I'm alone
so this night i shall close my eyes again
praying that all these things u will restore
and if morning comes and i do not wake
ill know that you didn't want me to hurt anymore.
