Oft I Wonder...


Oft I wondered about my faith,
And thankfully I have got it right!
What if I am wasn't strong enough in though?
Would I still get through every fight?

You know, I have to tell it true,
I wouldn't be fighting the fight,
If it wasn't for my faith, my belief,
And trust me, my faiths out of sight!

And it's just as well, cos I hound Him,
Throughout every day of my life,
He helps me sort my head out,
By helping me through all my strife!

And when at times I am burdened,
When things get to me really bad,
That's when I'm grateful for my faith!
Cos without it, I know I'd be sad!

I lean on Him in the hard times,
And thank Him during the good too!
And in between I simply pray,
But I don't think I'm as good as you...

You see, at times I forget my prayers,
And when I wake in the middle of the night,
My hands join together and I start to pray,
Then my praying gets out of sight!

And when I fall asleep again,
When I wake up through the night as I do,
There I am, praying all over again!
To make sure my prayers are getting through!

And I cant begin to tell you...
Just how many times I wake up to pray!
And in case I forget again the next night,
I make up for them in the day!

I wonder if the LORD would be sad at me,
For forgetting to pray, to my shame...
I think that its detrimental to me...
So once more, I am praying again!

‘Our Father up in heaven...
Forgive me for not praying as I should do,
And I pray for the ability to never forget,
So that I can send continuing my love to you!'
