PRAYER: Accept, Lord, My Offering...!


You Gave Me My Life, Lord
And
I Am Giving It Back
Because
In Your Word
You Have Promised
That Of Keeping Your Promises
You Are Not Slack!


In This Vein, Lord
I Am Coming To You
Seeking Your Help
Because I Need It
And
Because I Need You
To Help Me Today
Of My Word To You
To Keep It!


I Am A Mere Man
Mere Mortal, 'Tis True
But
I Have No Desire
To Use That As an Excuse
For
You Could Have Used
Your Divinity As An Excuse
To Destroy Me And My Kind
Because Of The Keeping Your Laws
We Did
And
Often Do
Insolently Refuse!
You Didn't, Lord
And
Thank You
Bless You
And
Praise Your Holy Name!


Pity Me, Lord 
This Child Of The Dust
And
Bless Me With Constancy
Consistency
And
Confidence
To Walk With You
In Certainty
Along Life's Pathways
And
Highways Every Day!


Bless Me With The Voice 
To Tell The Damned Liar
"No!"
Bless Me With The Heart
That Causes My Love For You
To Show!
Bless Me With Steady Legs
And
Narrow-Way Walking Feet
And
The Willingness To Never Indulge
In The Act Of
Planned Deceit!


Lift Me Up, Lord! 
I Love You!
Lead Me, Lord!
Help Me In Your Grace To Grow!
Feed Me, Lord
With Food Fit For My Needs
And
Help Me to Rest In Your Love
For I My Sins Willingly Do Repent
And
Confess!
Your Forgiveness In My Life Shows!


Remember My Brethren
Walking On Zion's Road!
Remember My Brethren
And
To Your Loving Heart
Keep Them Close!
Remember My Brethren
The Sheep In Other Flocks
And
Please
I Humbly Beseech You
Let The Loud Cry Go Out
So That They
Knowing The Good Shepherd's Voice
Will
With Alacrity
To The Safe Fold
Come Pouring In!
Oh, Lord
Call Them Out!


Please Ever Grant Us, Father
Faith For The Day
Courage For The Way
And
Strength To Hold The Almighty Hand
Of
Our Lord Christ
The Holy And Blessed Redeemer
The Eternal Son Of God
The Returning Son Of Man!
We Desire
On Heaven's Table Land
For Eternity To Stand!


Please Accept
This Humble Offering Of Prayer
For
I Ask All These Blessings
In Jesus Christ's Worthy Name!
Hasten The Great Day!
AMEN.
