Let my anguish of night succumb,
to morning light and feelings numb.
My wanting more of love not found,
I search for hope in daybreak sound.
I feel the warmth of sun's embrace,
through window pane upon my face.
Still having faith I start to pray,
Lord get me through another day.
My wants and needs get in the way,
not knowing what to do or say.
I praise you Lord, you give me hope,
on days I can no longer cope.
You see my tears and how I weep,
as darkness comes and shadows creep.
Each day I wake and say a prayer,
feel your presence, know you're there.
Thank you Lord for all that is good,
when I strayed you understood.
I praise you now for all you give,
the hope and faith so I may live.

Sometimes I wonder if My
God ever hears my prayers
I sit alone every day and night
looking for someone that cares
The tears I cry are unnoticed
will anyone wipe them away
The anger and pain I have inside
sits there, day after day
Then one night, I see the light
my Savior had came for me
He died upon a cross of wood
just to set you and me free
So now my tears of sorrow
have been turned to joy
It puts into my heart a song
which words can never employ
So now my faith is bigger than
anything this world can hold
I stand tall, I speak out loud
His strength in me has made me bold
The light that I now see
will bring me eternal life
And that is the hope I have
because He is my Savior, Jesus Christ
And yet again Sandy, this has been yet another wonderful poem. I truly enjoyed reading this as I do all your poems. They always put a smile upon my face and put joy into my heart. Seeing you still write for God is amazing. After these past three years, being in the family of God has really brought you much Joy. And I hope that I can always share in that joy with you as we worship our Lord and Savior Together, always and forever!! I will be reading more!! Stay tuned!! I love you and I miss you and I am always praying for you!!
God Bless You!!
Charles!!!

A nice prayer Sandy, every day is indeed a challenge, but we can certainly be glad that we were born into freedom in days of abundance. There are so many forces that want to limit our choices, nationalize (stifle) our health care, take away the means to protect ourselves, rewrite our history books and hide ourselves from the scourge of evil. It strikes me that this is a very prescient prayer for our time!

What a wonderful comment. I so agree with you. Thanks for the thoughtful comment. You take care, Sandy
