Dear Lord

I am moved to be creative
But I don't know what to say
So the best thing I can think of
Is to bow my head and pray
And I realize that this is
What you've wanted all along
To come to you for everything
Not just words to fill my song
So I'm asking...

Dear Lord, tell me what to say
Tell me what to do
Can you show me how to live my life
As an offering to you
Give me ears to hear
Give me eyes to see
And the heart to do
All you ask of me

Into my heart you whisper
The answers which I seek
Well my body may be willing
But my spirit is so weak
I need faith and reassurance
That you'll never leave my side
Can you show me I can do all things
If I have you as my guide
Still I'm asking...

Oh my fear, it is so strong
I have lived with it so long
It has been my true companion
Nearly all my days
Now I'm asking you today
Can you take my fear away
And replace it with your confidence and grace
