My Prayer Tonight

I don’t want to waste my time

With wishes and wants and regrets,

I want to live my life for you

Please, don’t let me forget.

That you’re in control

And you won’t let go,

My life is in your hands

Help me to trust you and know

I’m nothing without you.

You’ve given me a beautiful life

Even through the pain and the tears

I know I get scared, but your love carries me

To a place where I know no fears.

Teach me to rely on your mighty strength

And give me the peace to endure

Every trial and test and long, dark road

For I know that your light is sure.

To give me the guidance I need.
