Try to Pray

Knees bent, head bowed, hands clasped
I try to pray
But what do I say
Where do I start
What if I do it wrong
Is there a wrong way to pray?
What if I come across all wrong
Will He doubt me?
Do I talk or just confess
Plead for mercy or just sit
Lost in all of my questions
What if I make Him promises
Then take them back
Surely He'll get mad at me
But will He trust me enough
To forgive me again
Maybe I should
Just read the Bible instead
That is worship
But not a relationship with God
Everyone has to have one
So I need to work on mine
But what if I say something wrong
What if He doesn't believe me?
What if, What if, What if?
That's all I can seem to think
How is this going to help
Me grow in Christ?
Simple actually, it won't...
God loves me
Why didn't I remember that?
I need Him
No doubts about it
So I shouldn't worry
He made me with great care
So why in my time of need
Would he turn His back on me?
He won't
So once again I bow my head
And try to pray
And this time I let it all go
For I believe that prayer
Is the most powerful form of worship
And like I said, He loves me
So no worries

Do Feel

Inside I feel as if we are falling apart And I am the one to blame I don't know if you have sensed it But this is the way I feel I try to stop it You know I love you But I feel as if you are slipping through my fingers And away from my heart I feel helpless and useless There is nothing I can do or say To stop these feelings from coming But I guess that I should feel lucky That my heart still feels at all

Love

Love No other little four letter word Has ever meant so much Or, to some, so very little You see I believe Everyone thinks of love At least once in their so called Meaningful existence But their opinion of love Is as different and unique As the tips of their very fingers Some think of love And see the whole nine yards A husband and family Standing behind that freshly painted White picket fence So often only dreamed about Others think of love And can't help but to picture Themselves forever burning In the pits of hell itself For they have come to believe That to be in love is to be in hell Many manage to find A median between the two extremes They believe that their perfect person Is out there to be found But at the same time Understand that they may never meet Or live their happily ever after dream But I . . . I think of love And all I can do is picture you Because in you I've found All the love and meaning I'll ever need to make my life co...

Remember

I remember when long ago All I could do was dream Of finding true love I remember when long ago My wrists sorrowfully showed my pain As did yours I remember when long ago Life held no meaning I felt as if I was being forced to play a game I remember when long ago I felt as if my closest friends Were abandoning me I remember when long ago Alcohol became a dear friend As I tried to drink away my sorrows I remember when long ago You stepped into my life And managed to change all of that Later I will remember How good it felt For your love to fill my heart
