Dear Father god in heaven

Dear Father God in Heaven,
I am in so much pain,
I don't know how much more that I can take.
Yet You say Your yoke is easy,
That Your burdens are so light,
And You know and guide me through each move I make.

I try to do Your bidding,
And reach out to those in need;
If I was well there'd be much more that I could do.
I want to be Your servant,
To shine Your light upon the world,
But how can I when I feel so sad and blue?

I cry to You each morning,
Reach for You at night,
Yet I feel so lost and totally alone.
I'm tired, sad and weary,
Encumbered with guilt and shame,
Too afraid to step into the dark unknown

I need to feel Your presence
Deep within me every day,
To fill my heart with courage, peace and love.
Please take my hand in Yours
And keep me safe from harm,
'Till You take us home to You in Heaven above.

When You return as promised
For Your eagerly waiting Bride,
To take me to my promised mansion in the sky,
I pray You'll find me worthy
To be taken to Your side,
So forever I can reign with You on high.

May I join the choir of angels
Singing Hallelujah's to my King,
And finally behold You on Your Holy Throne.
Then for all eternity
On bended knee I'll bow,
Singing songs of praise and worship to You alone.
