A Woman's Prayer
Dear Father, how I want to be
All that thou designed for me,
For in thy plan I know I'll find
The joy that brings true peace of mind.
Please help me build within my soul
A gentleness with self-control.
And help me ever be aware
Of others who may need my care.
Oh, help me learn the gracious art
Of living with a happy heart.
And open up my eyes to see
Thy blessings here on earth for me.
Please cleanse my soul of all past sin.
Let sweet forgiveness enter in,
That I may know the fulness of
My Savior's pure atoning love.
Dear Father, help me see my worth,
And find a balance here on earth,
Then in each season's time fulfill
The goals that match thy holy will.
And when the world calls out to me
Please help me turn my heart to thee
That I may never sacrifice
The things that matter most in life.
Help me remember who I am,
And, somehow, fully understand
That I'm a daughter born of thee,
Divine offspring of deity.
