Bow my Head

As I bow my head in prayer

Here I am Lord, at it again,

Coming to you for help once more

Asking you for strength to stand.

I need strength Lord my breath is weak

It is so hard to breathe a good breath,

I get out of breath so easy Lord

Some times I think I am near death.

I am not complaining lord I’m just tired

It would be so much easier to just let go,

I'd feel a whole lot better in your arms

But I have to wait for my time I know.

I am so glad you are always here

And you always listen to me,

And you always reveal things too

Things that, I couldn’t see.

Help me be obedient Lord

And help me to be patient and kind

And Father help me never forget

Who lives in this heart of mine.
