I Bow Before You, Father!
I Come To Worship And To Give Praise
Because It Is My Heart's Desire
To Continue To Be Blessed By
And
Be Of Service To You
The Rest Of My Life's Days!
Lord,
I Am Not Greedy For Earthly Treasure!
I Am Not Anxious For Economic Power
Nor For Worldwide Fame
But
I Am Desirous Of Reaping The Eternal Benefits Of
Your Sacrificial Gifts Of Love
And
Ultimately To See You Face To Face
And
In Perfect Peace
And
Thankfully Worship You
In The Glorious Courts In Heaven Above!
I Am A Sinner, Saved!
I Am A Child, Loved!
I Am A Student, Eager!
I Am A Servant, Faithful
And
By Jesus Christ's Faith
I Am Holding Out My Hand
Giving Unto You My Stony Carnal Heart
And
Humbly Requesting Of You
The Promised New Heart Of Flesh
That Will Solely Beat For You
And
Lead Me The Way Of Self
Confidently To Depart!
Father,
I Pray For The Brethren Around The World
Those In Other Flocks Waiting
Listening
For The Words Of Truth And Life In The Lord Christ
In Their Ears To Be Heard!
I Pray, Father
For The Faithful Watchmen On Zion's Wall
That They Will Give The Trumpet
That Certain Sound Which Will Warn The People
Believer Or Nay
That There Is Trouble A-coming
And
To Make Haste And Get Ready!
I Pray, Also, Father
For Those Faithless Shepherds
Those Hirelings Who Strive Only For Filthy Lucre
And
Worldly Acclaim
Who Have No Soul-Love For The Master
Who Live As Watch-Dogs Tame
Soft, Pampered
And
Of Their Own Shadows Afraid
And
Lavishly Licking The Hand Of The Proud One
Who Encourages Them In Their Shame!
Please, Lord
Open Their Eyes To Their Own Peril
And
To The Peril Of Those Their Charges
That They Are Leading Astray!
Humble Them, Lord
So That Precious Souls May Be Saved!
Father Of The Faithful,
Thou Holy God Of The Saints
I Pray And Beseech You
To Continue To Teach Us
And
Direct Us On The Way To Eternal Life
Guiding And Chiding
Protecting And Correcting
Feeding And Leading
So That We Will Be Blessed
As We, Compliant To Your Holy Will
Seek Ever To Do Your Holy Bidding!
Please Cure Us Of Itching Ears!
Please Give Our Blind Eyes New Sight!
Please Clean Our Tongues
And
Give Unto Us The Gift Of Clean And Holy Speech
And
Bless Us With Willing Feet
Shod To Deliver The Gospel Of Peace
To Those Whom Your Heart Loves!
Father,
Please Rescue The Perishing
Who Are Not Dying From Lack Of Bread And Water
But Those Who Are Dying For Lack Of Hearing
The True Word Of God
Which Is Light And Life!
Help Us To Turn Away From The Encroaching Darkness!
Help Us To Turn To Jesus Christ The Righteous
The Giver Of True Light And Everlasting Life
And
Bless Us To Share The Good News Of Salvation
So That There Will Be An Abundant Harvest
Your Heart To Delight
In That Great Day!
Please, Lord
Give Unto This Day Our Daily Bread
And
Lead Us Unto Green Pastures
Even As We Pass Through That Valley
Which Has Those Fearful Shadows Of Death!
Hide Us In Your Love!
Father,
Please Send The Holy Angels To Attend And Protect Us
And
Please Help Us To Guard Our Hearts
Against The Wiles Of The Evil One
And
Please Help Us To Ever Listen To The Holy Spirit's Promptings
So That We Will Praise The Holy Jesus
And
Glorify Your Great Name With Love
Because
We Desire To Be Vessels Of Honor!
We Desire To Wear The Garments Of Praise!
Please Accept This Willing Offering, Father
And
Do For Us
What None But The Holy God Can Do
For It Is In Jesus Christ's Blessed Name
That I Humbly Pray!
AMEN.
