Week 29

It begins on my knees in prayer,
Calling out to You;
I give You all my cares,
Knowing Your promises are true.

Calling out to You -
Lord of my heart and life.
Knowing Your promises are true;
In You, there is an end to strife.


Lord of my heart and life,
I give You all my cares -
In You, there is an end to strife.
It begins on my knees in prayer.
