A Prayer For My Family

by Monique Ozuna   Apr 7, 2007


Lord, give me the strength
now that I'm home,
I need help to show them the truth
cause I know I can't do it alone;
I don't like to see them this way
but I don't know what to do,
They don't listen to what I got to say
cause I say what other people say too;
Lord, how can I reach their heart?
Cause what I'm doing is not working,
I know you gave me a fresh new start
but now I'm here, seeing my family hurting;
This is what I don't want to see
but Lord I don't know what to say,
I just want them to see You in me
and that I'm walking in Your way;
That I'm just trying to help
I'm not trying to make them mad,
I'm not trying to sound like anybody else
I just don't want to see them sad;
But Lord tell should I care?
And help out where I can?,
Even though they don't want me near
cause they say I don't understan';
But now Lord I'm leaving it up to You
to show them the way,
There's nothing I can do
so they hear what I got to say;
I pray for them every night
but now that's as far as I'm gonna go,
Cause with them I don't want to fight
all because, the Lord, I want them to know;
But I'm not here to hurt them more
cause these people here I love,
Once my heart was tore
but I was blessed from above;
This is what I'm trying to share
exactly what happen to me,
Even though they don't want me near
so I can't explain what the Lord made me see;
Thank You Lord for everything
that You've done for me,
But now Lord I'm asking for You to take them under Your Wing
and help them understand and like You did me, make them see!

AMEN
