The Lord, my God

Father, you are my rock
and it is to you I call.
I tell myself, there is no reason to have faith.
I lie, saying - “your way is wrong.”
But your way is not a way, is is the way,
the way all men should desire to live.

Oh Lord, precious Lord,
forgive me please,
for I have sinned so, and in my sins I have suffered and angered you.
It is you I must thank for Jesus,
because without Him, I am nothing.
I could have riches, splendour
fame and fortune

But of them all I'd rather have Jesus,
even if, at times, my heart isn't filled with His blood,
because He had none of those things,
only salvation, God and the gift of life.
His Father forgives,
and like Jesus, God Himself is merciful and just.

Please, oh Lord,
stay in my heart,
help me live how you want me to live,
and let my days be happy.

In Jesus name, I pray
Amen.
