The Prayer

Heavenly Father,

Thank you for the love

That comes from heaven above

The perfect peace

Our hearts won’t release

The strength we gain

Through heartache and pain

The daily journey

Meant for us only

Turning us around

Putting us on solid ground

The divine purpose

We see lying at the surface

Every moment that’s pure

Making us feel secure

Holding us close

Cause we matter most

Every single chapter

Filled with joy and laughter

Making us see

What’s truly meant to be

The beautiful home

Where our souls roam

And filling our core

Before you offer us more

Heavenly Father,

You are the beginning, middle and end

On you we can depend

You fill every soul

You make life whole

You are the guiding light

We follow day and night

Thank you for every pleasure

We cherish beyond measure

All the blessings granted

All the seeds we planted

The encouraging word

That deserves to be heard

Creating the way

We live every day

The power we feel

Things we know are real

Helping us stand

As we hold your hand

Creating the place

Where we run our race

We can make it through

As we follow you

Heavenly Father

In Your Arms

In your arms

I can face every day

See how God made a way

I can build as I go

Share what I know

I can feel your strength

As we talk at length

I can build my dreams

Until I burst at the seams

I can stand on solid ground

Share the joy I found

I can fulfill every purpose

Lying at the surface

I can hold my faith close

Cause faith matters most

I can count every blessing granted

Water the seeds I planted

I can run my race

In a safe and secure place

I can enjoy moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

I can reach my peak

Whenever I hear you speak

And life gets better

Cause I embrace it to the letter

In your arms

I can look at heaven above

Then see nothing but love

I can travel far

As I heal every scar

I can acknowledge God

With a wink and nod

I can see life lessons learned

All the stripes I’ve earned

I can look straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Knowing God set our path

Without unleashing His wrath

I can see the steps I’ll take

All the memories I’ll make

I can relish peace

My heart won’t release

In your arms
