Firmly Rooted Prayer
Please do not let me be ignored,
Turn your ear onto me O Lord;
Answer me for I am in need,
As a captive for to be freed.
Answer me for I am oppressed,
Show me how to handle this quest;
For I am faithful as I cling,
To the grace and mercy You bring.
Save Your servant from all the lust,
Because it is within you I trust;
For being my God in control,
Of my very heart mind and soul.
I cry out to You all day long,
For agony wants to prolong;
Please have the pity upon me,
Helping with the insight to see.
Give me joy for lifting my soul,
With comfort while you console;
Full of mercy that You forgive,
My transgressions so I may live.
Open your ears onto my prayer,
Calling upon You as I share;
Pay attention onto my plea,
For I wait till You answer me.
