In these last days of March, Lord:
I pray for quiet time,
far from all the clatter and the clamor...
I pray for wisdom's counsel
to untangle my confusion...
I pray for consolation
to becalm my troubled spirits...
I pray for time
to finish all the things I need to do...
I pray my heart to open wide
to serve the poor in need...
I pray for peaceful dreams
to help me make it through the night...
I pray my thoughts be docile,
always waiting for your word...
I pray for grace to figure out
what's right from what is wrong...
I pray for friends who love me
when I fail to love myself...
I pray for you to hold my heart
in warm and gentle hands...
I pray for trust and hope
to help me face what lies ahead...
I pray for love to spare,
to share with those who are alone...
I pray to act with mercy
though I've not been treated justly...
I pray for strength to do
what I find hardest to accomplish...
I pray to pardon freely
those who've hurt and wounded me...
I pray to know your love for me
when mine for you is wanting...
I pray you hear my every prayer,
the spoken and the silent...
In these last days of March, Lord,
I trust you hear my prayer...
Protect me, Lord, while I'm awake
and watch over me while I sleep
that awake, I might keep watch with you
and asleep rest in your peace...
Amen.
Hear My Prayer by Moses Hogan
O Lord, please hear my prayer;
In the morning when I rise.
It's your servant bound for glory.
O dear Lord, please hear my prayer.
O Lord, please hear my prayer.
Keep me safe within your arms.
It's your servant bound for glory.
O dear Lord, please hear my prayer.
When my work on earth is done,
And you come to take me home.
Just to know I'm bound for glory;
And to hear You say, "Well done!"
Done with sin and sorrow.
Have mercy. Mercy.
Amen.
