This Is My Prayer ღ KKD ღ

A Poem by Donna DeLong Matthews aka Gold Pen Ghost

 



This Is My Prayer



It's over troubled waters
your life leads you go
but alone you will never walk
my precious one this you must know

Oh my little one
on bended knee I pray
That God will guide you
upon this road you walk today

The decisions needed
are far beyond your tender years
The road you are to embark
brings such heart tears

I see disolved dreams
bright future lights dim
You standing upon
one of life's cracking limbs

A mile in your shoes
I have walked
I know the hard times
so this is not just talk

If not for a bright shining future
would be easier to accept
I place you today in God's Hands
to be safely kept

My love for you
is steady and strong
I will be by your side
my whole life long

I pray you will know
the love that surrounds you
and family does not abondon
regardless of what you do

Alone you will never be
Upon this road you trod
You have family  who adores you
and the love of our precious God

So in His hands you I do place
to keep you safe from harm
through this
one of many life's storms

ღ I  love you baby girl ღ

Song Lyrics

I pray you'll be my eyes
And watch her where she goes
And help her to be wise
Help me to let go

Every mother's prayer
Every child knows
Lead her to a place
Guide her with your grace
To a place where she'll be safe

I pray she finds your light
And holds it in her heart
As darkness falls each night
Remind her where you are

Every mother's prayer
Every child knows
Need to find a place
Guide her to a place
Give her faith so she'll be safe

Lead her to a place
Guide her with your grace
To a place where she'll be safe


Celine Dion
A Mother's Prayer

A beautiful write from a heart that only wishes happiness for the life she places in God's hands.
I know how deeply you feel each word of this write. Sometimes there is not other way to express
what a piece of writing leaves with us. Beautiful, may at times be thrown around in poetry comments,
but beautiful, is such a fitting way to describe your heart and write. Beautiful my Dearest Friend.

Love,
