Poem

Closer to Your Heart

Father,
I want to grow
More in Your presence
And to know you more

Take me deeper
That I’ve been before
Teach me how to
Abide in your ways

Let my thoughts
Be aligned with your will
I pray for a humble heart
To cherish Your grace

Take me to the place
Where there is You and me
Purify my soul
Help me live to Your principles

Let my words
Reflect your goodness
Let my actions bring honor
To Your name and plans

The riches of this world
Is nothing without you
If I don’t have you in my life
Because I need you, Lord

I cannot live
Without Your Presence
I need your guidance
I need your peace

Come and have your way
Be the God of my life
Reign and be magnified
In Jesus’ Name, I pray

Amen
