With upraised head
And folded hands,
Upon my knees, I fall.
Unto His name
My prayer rings out,
For He will hear my call.
I lift my eyes
To lofty heights,
In wonder and despair.
My words are heard
‘mid worldly sounds,
With Him, my fears, I share.
As we speak,
He calms my soul,
I feel His strength and power.
For He is there
To guide my thoughts,
To lead me through this hour.
I feel His hand,
Its gentle warmth,
It lifts me to my feet.
Again, I stand,
My strength renewed.
With Him, I am complete.

The longer I live, the more I rely on God in prayer for anything truly good.
“Be anxious for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus” (Phl. 4:6-7).
