The Prayer ( A thought from a sinner)

When will it stop, when will it end,
The hurt attached when you commit a sin
A sin against nature, a sin against you
One that leaves you broken, one that leaves you blue.
If sin is inevitable, then why try to fight it
If in the end all we will do is commit and then deny it
If we are made in his image then this should not be a problem
Instead I think we resemble the cruel hearts that crucified him
Im trying my best to do what is right
And in the end it seems Im losing the fight
So I look to your word to give me power
For it is that word that comforts in the darkest hour
You said you wouldn’t put more on me than I could bear
But it seems that load I have is to great to share
And you shouldn’t have to fix anymore of my mistakes
But you promised me salvation through your mercy and your grace
So Im running back to you Lord, though I never really left
I was just blinded by the thing I thought I couldn’t neglect.
I realize now that you are my constant help
And through your guidance I can run on and tell
Of the blessings, and the gifts you have placed in me
And give that testimony that might set that dying soul free
Im tired of running and Im ready to do what you say
Just allow me to receive and walk the right way.
Allow me to lift up those who are close around me
Allow me to be that star that guides those lost at sea
Allow me to touch lives that feel they can no longer go on
And give me the strength to minister and tell them to run on
And when it seems my fight is close to an end
Allow me to realize there is a dawn on the horizon
In your name is victory and I know I will win
I thank you for hearing me Lord and I say Amen.
