oh, how many words there are to speak.
but oh, how lacking and empty are existing words.
oh, how fleeting everything is.
oh, how little quenches my ineffable thirst.
and so I pray:
Heavenly Father, You always amaze me
Let Your kingdom come in my world and in my life
Give me the food I need to live through today
And forgive me as I forgive the people that wrong me
Lead me far from temptation
Deliver me from the evil one
---
I look out the window
The birds are composing
Not a note is out of tune or out of place
I walk to the meadow and stare at the flowers
Better dressed than any girl on her wedding day
So why should I worry? Why do I freak out?
God knows what I need
You know what I need
Your love is strong
---
The Kingdom of the Heavens is now advancing
Invade my heart
Invade this broken town
The Kingdom of the Heavens is buried treasure
Would you sell yourself to buy the one you've found?
Two things You told me: That You are strong and You love me
Yes, You love me.... [hmm]
Your love is strong
---
Our God in Heaven
Hallowed be Thy name
Above all names
Your Kingdom come
Your will be done
On earth as it is in Heaven
Give us today our daily bread
Forgive us weary sinners
Keep us far from our vices
And deliver us from these prisons
May it be so.
