Pray to Strengthen Christians
I kneel in front of the Father,
And whole family in Heaven;
Through Jesus Christ our Brother,
From whom salvation was given.
I ask God to give us a gift,
From the great wealth of His glory;
Maybe inner strength to uplift,
To defeat the adversary.
Through power of His Spirit,
In cleansing your body within;
Making space what we inherit,
Purifying us from the sin.
The God is ready to forgive,
Through the faith that you have kept;
And Jesus is ready to live,
Within the righteousness that slept.
May the love be the roots that sink,
Into the ground of salvation;
Purifying thoughts that you think,
For building up your foundation.
So everything that you heard,
Of God through all of His people;
How they are walking in the Word,
As recorded in the Gospel.
Understand how deep and how wide,
As His love goes from long to high;
And that you must also abide,
And never need to question why.
