God's most holy son
Teach me of your love
So through its joy
I might immortal come
And have no fear of death.
O Lord Jesus, sacred king
Embrace me within your light
Forgive my sins dark as night
Baptise my soul
So a star within the darkness glows.
Great King of Kings
Give me thoughts of Paradise
Keeping me safe and true
Forgive all my wasted days
Lost without thought of you.

I THINK I AM NOT WORTHY TO MAKE ANY COMMENT ABOUT THIS PRAYER.
Awwwww! ! ! ! this is too much for the heart...it is a reality for many of us who forget God when we live in the world and not in Jesus. you are great elena
A great prayer to say to the Most High. It shows me of the Lords love and that he is my KIng.
I do like this very much. Its content is soothing and it comes out so smoothly Linda
Such a sweet understanding to talk to God as you do you must be close to him. 'Forgive all my wasted days', when we just didn't do what he called us to. How refreshing to share with others. Phebe
Jesus's promise as a filter against Old Testament rigidity inspires many, in all areas. That He can inspire such creativity in you is a testament to His gift. If every Christian saw the world with the wonder your poetry conveys, we'd have 'em all converted in a week.

I thought I was innoculated against religeon at birth....... It must have been at 13 with my BCG! You have just caused me to recall a prayer I was taught as a child, I did not understand it at the time..... Gentle Jesus meek and mild Look on me a little child Pity my Simplicity And suffer me to come to thee Amen. Do people still say prayers?
