A Christmas Prayer
The years flow by far too quickly LORD for me to comprehend
The power of the gifts You give – Like children, family, friends
Before another moment passes I kneel in humble prayer
To thank You Father for what You do that lets me know You’re there
The tears in the eyes of our first born; Music that flows from the heart
The strength in the spirit of our second one; Great joy in a brand new start
The peace in the smile of our third child and the wisdom that comes only from You
The love of good souls and the way they reflect all the wondrous things that You do
O GOD You are gracious in Your giving towards me
This life You have truly changed
Your love has lifted the lowest heart and has eased the heaviest pain
That anyone would give themselves- a ransom for my soul,
I cannot understand the beauty of it, nor it can I extol
The grace gift of Your love for everyone means more than words can say
It is that same grace in which I now live and am free to openly pray
From Heaven’s throne down Jesus You
came with one clear purpose in mind
To lift up. to heal the brokenhearted with Love that flows -so Divine
In this my prayer, this Christmas now I bow to lift grateful praise
I bless Your name O Marvelous LORD, For You are Worthy, O Ancient of Days!
