"Dear Lord...I've Seen The Light"
Dear Lord, I need a word with you
If you have time to spare.
I know that you're quite busy,
My time is also rare.
In fact, that's why I wanted
To talk to you tonight.
I need to explain to you
That I have seen the light.
For so long I have taken
For granted that you knew
My wants and my needs
And my desires too.
Not only that, but peace of mind
And happiness I seek
I'd like to be much stronger
Instead of being weak.
I thought that you would help me
If only I believed.
I waited for you, Lord,
In my time of need.
I'd rush to work each morning.
I'd rush through lunch as well.
I knew I had alot to do;
I had no time to tell
You what was on my mind
Or what I needed now;
In my haste to live my life
I've forgotten to somehow
Make the time to spend with you
And ponder who you are.
I guess I've put you in the closet
Then forgot and closed the door.
I know this sounds so strange
But I just now realize
I've done it without thinking
But now open are my eyes.
How can I expect you to help me
When I don't even stop to say
I love you and make the time
Each day to you to pray?
Lord, thank you for not giving up
On me, I've been so wrong
And now I'm asking you to help me
From now on to be strong;
In remembering what I need to do
And as I open the closet door
I pray that you'll forgive me
And that you will restore
In me the values needed
To be what I should be
And that's to come and talk with you
Much more regularly.
I thank you, Lord, for loving me
Enough to stick around;
You said what I needed to hear
Yet never made a sound.
But that is just your gentle way
That I admire so
And how I want to be some day
But have a long way to go.
I know that I will make it
So long as you are near
And I have nothing in this world
That I will ever fear.
For I have you to lean on
My rock, my Lord, my all;
You're there to help me up again
Whenever I may fall.
I thank you, Lord, for taking
This time to spend with me;
It's more than I deserve,
I've seen the light, you see.
