A prayer for those souls
Who’ve lost their way
Of no clear direction
No hope here this day
For the lonely
In darkest of night
Who feels no one cares
And can’t see the light
For those suffering
Of pain to endure
With voice of despair
Can’t take it no more
Bless them Your light
For You are the Word
Oh Lord let us share
Your love to be heard
All living things
Will come to die
A truth to see
We can’t deny
God’s chosen ones
Then found a way
If without sin
Gods wrath to sway
Try though they might
With rules construe
But it’s a task
No man can do
God out of love
His Son He gave
Man and divine
For us to save
He showed the way
Of love so pure
Send on a task
One to endure
He took our sins
Yes, everyone
To Father said
Your will be done
A suffering
So cruel, He died
By hands of men
Was crucified
Laid in a tomb
He body spread
On the third day
Rose from the dead
He conquered death
Our joy to be
Our hope realized
Eternally!
Bless a little window
Shine a little light
Send a little hope
One of soul’s insight
Gift a little faith
Spark a little flame
Speak a little word
Faith of which to claim
Seek a little silence
Be a little still
Say a little prayer
Offer up your will
Looking through the window
Truth to contemplate
His desire to out pour
All His treasures, great
As a little child
I was taught to see
Through prayer of the Our Father
Our God loves tenderly
In the teenage years
I grew rebelliously
Though I didn’t see it
God loves unselfishly
My spouse of the meeting
A binding of the three
In our celebration
God loved joyfully
A blessings gift of children
A new view now to see
Perspective of the Father
Love unconditionally
A call of the returning
To seek forgivingly
New seeds of the planting
God loves mercifully
As mid-life was approaching
Less years in front of me
Roots of contemplation
God loves intimately
Though eyes grow old and weary
The soul can clearly see
A grateful hearts reflection
God loves tremendously
When the journeys finished
Hope for us to see
The facets of God’s love
For all eternity
Another novena
To offer up too
May this be different
A changing of view
You know my desire
My wants and my needs
Let my request
To Your will, concede
Oh Lord I am grateful
Of Your love so true
Whatever’s before me
May I trust in You
Oh Lord I am sorry
For I sin against You
Rejoice in Your mercy
Let me forgive too
You are all that I need
With me to cope
Letting You be
My source of all hope
Let me repeat
These thoughts each day
Leaving some time
To hear what You say
In the depth of winter
In barrenness of view
I caught a glimpse of picture
Of color that shown through
Masterpiece of beauty
A wonderful display
A garden of flowers
That seems so, far away
Contrast to the outlook
Of this morn’, cold and gray
Let it warm the soul
And take it now to pray
With vision of capture
Of season to know
The coming of hope
For our Lord to show
Lord you are forgiving
All good through and through
Abounding in Your love
To all who call to You
Hear my prayer oh Lord
My cry for mercy
In distress I call
Because You answer me
Teach me Your ways, oh Lord
Your faithfulness, proclaim
With undivided heart
Trusting in Your name
I praise You, Lord my God
Heart be magnified
Forever let me say
Your name be glorified
For Your love is great
Steadfast love for me
My soul you’ve delivered
In Your eternity
My child, how I love you
Far beyond today
One of the eternal
More than words can say
In this moment blessed
Of captured vision see
Perhaps one day return
Of binding memory
In this way to find me
In spark of mornings light
Upon a crest of wave
Flow in soul’s delight
Know you’ll find me waiting
Of home to be prepared
In precious light of heaven
Forever to be shared
Two tears on two cheeks
Roll down on the face
Flow in sorrows joy
Blend in one embrace
Known in loves goodbye
Love our parting gift
Into Fathers hands
Hope of souls to lift
One goes in beyond
Of unknown treasure, true
Heavens gift of grace
Be granted unto you
One stays in between
The journey not yet through
In prayer, be the connection
The love of heavens view
In life’s deepest valleys
Or in our darkest night
Let us proclaim
Walk by faith, not by sight
When lost within the way
Not sure how to cope
For I know the plans for you
Your future and your hope
When doubt overwhelms
Worlds temptation shows
Draw to inner prayer
Lord to whom, shall we go?
When in life of living
Quotes can be cliché
The answers wrapped in love
When we pause to pray
