Oh, Lord
Praise to God
Rated:

Avg Rating: (2)
In days of desperation
I never lost sight of your grace,
A calmness, laughter always there,
Pure compassion in your face.

Staring out, no friends.
I knelt; I prayed, wept, alone
where loneliness leads - death
how soon would it come?


I prayed , "Mercy Oh Go"
"Forgive my transgressions,
I am the criminal, you are not."
"I AM your sheep, let me follow"

I KNEW there was no other,
Only God could pull me through.
Were my sins too great?
I was in fearof 0nei had never seen.

In years I HAVE found solace
Your friendship has poured into me
Love has been a constant
You still say "Follow me"


Sing this praise for God in Glory
Sing a song for HE alone;
For God is ONE and ONLY
And knows our hearts, our
longings, and our toughened souls
