A prayer for change
I want something to change
I need something to change
I need to change
I need you to change me
Here I am
In the midst of the mess
Although my life is a mess
And I am a mess
Here I am
I long to be, just be in your presence
Abide with me,
Speak to me
Change me
Let me see myself through your eyes
Let me see the truth
Let me know the truth
Let me feel the truth
Let me know you
Giver of life
O Lord,
My Soul is restless,
My heart is aching
For comfort, healing, connection
I cannot walk alone anymore
I long to be able to say
“It is well with my soul”
My faith is withering, useless alone
I need to learn again to trust
I need to find a place of belonging
Safety for my soul
A place of peace,
True rest
I have seen
I have tasted
The sweetness of your unconditional love
Yet have I forgotten?
Do I no longer believe?
I know my sins are forgiven
Yet I long for deep healing
And to find my place in your family
I long to worship you with all my heart…yet
I am suffocating, drowning
Indeed I feel as if my soul is dying
I need to be reminded of the truth
I need to know it in my heart
I’m willing to do whatever it takes
To get out of here
To be free
