A poem I wrote when I was in the middle of a dark storm.
Prayer for Peace


Lord I’m so weak and worn
I can not go any farther
For my heart and soul is torn
I feel like such a martyr

I know I must stand
That I must wait on you
For you will move the sand
So that this will pass too

Lord I’m tired and about to fade
I have fallen too weak and weary
My heart has prayed and prayed
I trust in you though a little teary

Lord I come to You almost too late
Without strength to complete the test
Help for my burden I now will wait
Here my broken heart will find rest

Lord I come with a troubled mind
I can not stumble in the dark anymore
The light that you promised please let me find
So that I can finally walk free with You Lord

Help me to let go and put it in your hands
Free from this loneliness, pain and doubt
Your hedge and shield please command
And leave it there until my life turns about

Lord I pray humbly at your door
For I can not go on without You
My strength has become no more
I have done all I know to do

Across this thresh-hold is the Son
In Him alone, there lies the key
Will this dark night be won
Then I will finally be able to see
