Father,
I Come To You As A Child
Of
My Own Will
Willing
To Trust You At Your Word
To Lead Me
To Guide Me
To Bless Me
To Take Me With You
Safely
To The Heavenly Home!
In Humbleness Of Heart
I Worship You
And Will To Obey You
In Every Particular
Even Though Those Whom I Can See
Say:
It Is Folly!
Come Out With Us And Play!
Lord,
I Desire The Eternal Blessing
Not The Earth's Bright Things
That All Dim and Decay!
I Desire The Elevation To Your Glory
Not The Elevation To Things
That Surely Fail The Soul
With Blessing To Pay!
Father,
I Give You, Me
Recognizing That Without You
That I Am Wretched
Miserable
Poor
Blind
Naked
And In Need Of Everything
That The Majesty Of Heaven Has
For A Dying Child Of The Dust
To Give Him Life!
Oh, Lord,
I Am Yours
And
In Anticipation Of Eternal Blessings
I Ask You To Help Me To Walk To
And With You
With Faithful Obedience
And
In Unfeigned Humility!
Help Me Not To Lean
On My Own Understanding!
Help Me Always To Acknowledge You
And
Your Will
As Sovereign!
Help Me To Look Confidently Unto My Jesus
For My Own Soul's Salvation
And
Bless Me Ever Always
To Keep My Eyes Securely Fixed
On The Blessed Hope
And
Be Ever Constant
And
True!
I Love You, Lord!
I Despise That Other
And
Ask You To Help Me
To Speak Truth Unto My Sisters
My Brothers
At Home
Abroad
Near To Sight
Those In The Faith
Those Coming To Faith
Even The Faithless
And
To Walk As Jesus Walked
Assured Of
The Heaven Bound Flight!
Bless Me To Live Right
By Faith
And
Never Sight
And
Ever Trusting
In The Blood-Bought Promises
Aware
That The Dawn Of Glory Comes
Only
After Sin's Dark Night!
Please Pity The Praying
Believing
Working
Waiting
Watching People
Who Are The Called
The Few
The Chosen
The Enduring Faithful!
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
I Ask These Few Petitions
As With Faith, I Pray!
AMEN.
