Prayer of Weakness
Lord give me peace in my heart. Take my anger and soften it, mold my hatred into kindness. Reshape my foul temperament into sonnets honoring You. Lord give me strength of weakness to embrace my enemies against my flesh, to harbor no wish to condemn. Give me a heart to pray for them when I am on my knees. Lord give me the love of a child, to ask not, nor make demands of You. Give me ears to listen to the songs You sing and not question, what I as a child knew to be true. Lord take all my shallow darkness and disperse its gloom with Your overpowering love. Find me when I am lost in shadows and bring me into the comfort of Your light. copyright 1992 - Donald P James Jr https://www.amazon.com/stores/Donald-P.-James-Jr./author
