Personal. With an open heart and mind I've asked. |
I’ve stretched out my thoughts in many ways Without any ideas and no direction provided I gave without taking or giving any demands All I ever asked for was love. (pause) Father who’s truly everywhere, hear my humble prayer. (instrumental) Nothing that I’ve done through other people’s hands Was without cost to myself and my esteem I swallowed the bitterness of being alone All I ever wished for was love. (pause) Father who’s truly everywhere, hear my humble prayer. (instrumental) By taking ownership of nothing I held sway Guided by the light from within my soul Chasing dreams of love trying to become whole All I ever hoped for was love. (pause) Father who’s truly everywhere, hear my humble prayer. (instrumental) Life’s precious to me and your halls sacred The principals of equality and unity are required For peace to flourish and reign between perspectives All I ever dreamed about was love. (pause) Father who’s truly everywhere, hear my humble prayer. (instrumental) Lives are the coins that are sadly sacrificed When the people forget to cherish each other Building walls out of hate collapse in time All I ever worked for was love. (pause) Father who’s truly everywhere, hear my humble prayer. (instrumental) Circles without any end travelled in constant repetition Bring death to all in our time eventually Regardless of what positions they hold in life All I ever gave for was love. (pause) Father who’s truly everywhere, hear my humble prayer. (instrumental) Allow for clarity of mind to overcome slavery Allow for acts of kindness and true forgiveness To flourish, healing our past wrongs between us All I ever tried for was love. (pause) Father in your name with love, I ask for the above. Amen. |
