Dear Lord

Dear Lord
by Phylicia Edwards

Dear Lord, help me with this battle I fight,
Guide me lord, every day and every night.
Keep me safe and away from harm
Hold me tightly in your arms.
Remember the nights, every soul would pray
Thanking you for their blessings and life that day?
Asking if they'd die before they wake...
For you, Dear Lord, their souls to take.
Keeping my cool with all of my might
Knowing you will keep my load light.
Remembering you are my good luck charm
That I will always be in your arms.
Looking at your people all happy and gay
Knowing that tomorrow is another day.
My love for you is real, there's no way I would fake it
My life is what you and I together make it.
So for all of you who don't know
Open your hearts and feel the love flow.
Keep God "FIRST" in your life
And know everything will be all right.
For all of you who think your life is a mess
Seek the Lord and "MAY GOD BLESS."
