My father God I talk to you in times of dark despair
“Lord ease my lot” and “make thing right” reflects my constant prayer
But then again when things are bright, and fear is far away
I spend my days in mindless ways, forgetting what to pray.
But I should praise you every day and never count the cost
Come rain or shine, in pain, or fine, when even all is lost
You will provide my every need and even more than this,
If I will only give my life completely to your wish
Come Holy Spirit move in me and lead me to your side
Providing wisdom, strength and skill and energy beside
To do your will, is my desire in every breath I take
To purify my life for you, and save it for your sake
I glorify you Father God, and hand you full control
Take all I am, my life my work, my treasures and my soul
Refine me in your fire of love and turn my face to you
That I may fill my days in praise, and all my faith renew.
