Prayer of the Hurting


Lord, You know my heart
Hurt and pain rips me apart
With the abuse from my past
I need to find release at last

How can I focus on You above?
I do not even deserve Your love
I am such a failure in Your sight
I can't seem to ever get it right

Why do I continue to feel this way?
Fear leaves me terrified each day
It seems that no matter what I try
I continue to break down and cry

I want to place my trust in You
But I just don't know what to do
When I come to You and pray
I can't find the right words to say

Let me feel Your warm embrace
Draw me close by Your grace
May Your Spirit help me see
The way that I can be set free

© Carol Salter on 10/31/07

This poem is dedicated to all who desire to find a way to
escape their hurt.  It only begins with God, my friend.
