I am praying
Here in my room, on my knees -
God, Thou seest me,
But why can I see not thee?
I am saying
Everything that is in my heart -
God, Thou hearest me
Yet Lord, why can't I hear thee?
I am pleading
For my eyes to be opened
To a greater light
God, thou knowest me
But why do I know not thee?
I am begging
For my mind to be lifted
To a greater height,
God thou teachest me,
But God, I cannot reach thee.
I am crying
For an answer to my prayers tonight -
But Lord I wait to feel thee.
Please, Lord
Do not leave me;
Do not leave me.
Thou art my Strength, my Hope, my Light,
And tonight, O God,
I need thee.
