Let us pray Father God, I am just learning how to pray, bear with me First I thank you for the life of everyone that's here with me Then I thank you for the love you give me, why? I don't know, I don't deserve it, and it hurts inside Many a-nights I cried and called your name out loud But didn't call you when I was doin' good, too proud And still, you gave me love, I wasn't used to that Most of the people that gave me love, they ended up takin' it back That's somethin' new to me, so I'm askin' you for time to adjust Let me make it there, I will be one you can trust What I stand for, I put my life on, I do I guess what I'm askin' is: show me how to stand for you And I will rap for you, sing for you, preach for you, teach for you, reach for you I will love you like you love me: unconditionally And I will always be prepared for whatever the mission'll be Give the nutrition to me, and I'll properly digest it And when I give it back, I'll show you word well invested And whenever I go, before I go, let me give Thanks to you Lord, for my birth, for every day that I've lived You gave me a love most of my life I didn't know was there In the name of Jesus! I give you my life, 'cause you cared (Amen)
