Praying For Help Too Late Poem by Ray Hansell

Oh Lord, I'm scared and tired
I need some help from you
I just don't think I'll make it
I don't have the strength to make it through

Can I lean on You?
Can You lend me a hand?
I know that I'm strong
But alone I can't stand

Can You stay beside me?
As I try to walk
Please say a prayer
I need to hear you talk

Oh lord, can You carry me?
My limbs are very weak
Help and forgiveness
It's all that I seek

I know I used Your name in vain
More times then I should
But I had hoped here in the end
You'd help me of you could

I may not have the right
To ask of You the things I do
But I always hoped that in the end
That I could count on You
