Dear God, We Hold Nothing But You Poem by rosalinda flores martinez

Lord, we hold nothing, but You.
In all the burdens that press us down
We hold nothing, but You.

In all the agony of our hearts
We hold nothing, but You.

When we’re crushed down to the ground
We hold nothing, but You.

Because we are imperfect
Because we are filled with pride
Because we are short with love
Because we doubt you
Because we divide,
When we’re blinded with insecurities
And selfishness
Let us grip on you tightly for renewal.

Let your hand brush the curse
Nature has laid upon us
Let your tongue speak the words of power
From heaven
Let Your heart be our hearts
Filled deeply with love and peace.

We hold nothing, but You.

We are crushed because of each other
We doubt because we are weak
Let us love each other, show mercy
And kindness to each other
So we could build the earth, again.

We pray for minds filled with wisdom
With wills strong in obedience to you
With hands full of mercy
With eyes, the beauty of your face.

Be with us Lord, in the troubles of our time
And let (us) our hands work together
Free, but prudent for love and peace
For all the earth is ours.

Oh, One God of Love
Our Father in Heaven
We hold nothing, but You
Let Your kingdom come now
We hold nothing, but You.

We hold nothing, but You.

“The Our Father (A Universal Prayer) ”

Our Father, who art in Heaven
Holy be your name
Your kingdom come
Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread
And forgive us our sins
As we forgive those, who sin against us
Do not bring us to the test,
But deliver us from evil. Amen.

Thank you dear Jesus,
Rose
