Dear Heavenly Father
It’s a half past midnight
And I’m down on my knees
Oh dear heavenly Father
Won’t you take this storm from me
You know what I can bear
But sometimes I just don’t
I feel like I’m about to drown
Adrift out at sea all alone
Each day feels like a lifetime
Waiting for each minute to pass
Why can’t I just stop the tears
Falling like sands in an hour glass
I know that you are there
And that it isn’t you but me
So why can’t I just reach out
I’m so tired of feeling lonely
Oh dear heavenly Father
I am down on my knees
Why must you feel so distant
When it is you that I need
God won’t you hear my cries
Before I go any farther
Reach down and pull me up
Oh dear heavenly Father
I know that after the storm
A rainbow awaits me
I just have to draw upon you
Your grace, strength and mercy
In your arms I long to be
Away from all this in life
From my knees I reach out
Deliver me from my strife
