THE WORDS

Every line, a little closer.

I have been praying and waiting my life given over to you I read your scriptures daily and your voice comes through My tears and my prayers have purpose Your sacrifice on the cross my soul has purchased This valley that I travel thru, is but a fleeting span of time Still I cannot wait for you to come and help my climb Out of darkness you drew me and now shape me I am yours forever into eternity Create in me a clean clean heart With the holy spirit in me I can receive a fresh new start I have been praying and waiting my life given over to you I read your scriptures daily and your voice comes through My tears and my prayers have purpose Your sacrifice on the cross my soul has purchased My sleepless nights have unsettled my resolve Still I want your guidance to prevail please remember my name This life on earth I committ to you as you take my shame Father I know you have loved me from the very beginning And yet you knew that I would be living my life and sinning Lord remain beside me and wrap me in your arms As I am close to you this pain will no longer do harm I have been praying and waiting my life given over to you I read your scriptures daily and your voice comes through My tears and my prayers have purpose Your sacrifice on the cross my soul has purchased These tears will end, and my pain will ease I know I only desire and aspire to please The answers you send are making me thankful for your blessings Yes I am in your family and am no longer stressing Father cast your miracle on me, that I would be made whole Being filled with the Holy Spirit I will reach my goal I have been praying and waiting my life given over to you I read your scriptures daily and your voice comes through My tears and my prayers have purpose Your sacrifice on the cross my soul has purchased Lord I know you have called me to be your instrument And I will with your son who was heaven sent You called young David and made him a king He rose up in battle only your praises to sing, A man after your own heart, you called him with a shout He would worship and praise you in season and out I have been praying and waiting my life given over to you I read your scriptures daily and your voice comes through My tears and my prayers have purpose Your sacrifice on the cross my soul has purchased Finally father we await your son and we will look to the sky As we are see him coming we will be lifted and will fly My struggles will be over I will see my beloved My destiny is life in heaven joining all of my brothers and sisters I have been praying and waiting my life given over to you I read your scriptures daily and your voice comes through My tears and my prayers have purpose Your sacrifice on the cross my soul has purchased The battle has already been won and Jesus has overcome Yes Lord the battle has been won and Jesus has overcome
