The Prayer
My Father, the one I've forgotten
The one I have left when I thought I had answers
To all of my problems, to all of my faults
You fill my void when there's something I've lost
When I shed a tear, you're there with the cloth
When I can't stand the hurt, you're there to make it stop
I give you my life, every thought
Every scar, every cut
Every imperfection you seem to see through it
And flaws, they seem flawless
In your eyes
I'm the last to ask for mercy
I tremble in your presence
Confide in your being
I long for your love
That you gave me through death
Of your Son who was perfect
And I never will be
But you still continue
To love me the same
For I deserve nothing
I deserve nothing
Empty my spirit
And make it your own.
