O, Father!

This is something I originally wrote to the tune of "O Come, O Come Emmanuel." It's not very good poetically/lyrically, but I think it describes what I feel sometimes. It's basically my prayer to God.


I'm passing through this life of woe and sin
I've lost my way and cannot find Him
I've tried my best, but I cannot win
I know not which way to begin

     PLEASE, I need thy aid!

Father, gracious and divine
Please send me an angel of thine
To strengthen me and draw the line
That thou might lighten my load
And I will know thy will in every fork in every road

I feel so alone, and I'm so afraid
All the voices in my head start a raid
Tearing at my mind, making it frayed
Please, fill my heart with thy mighty aid

  O, FATHER!
         PLEASE!

    Cosette,

    You amaze me. I hope your life is going well. Those lyrics are beautiful (and it also helps that "O Come, O Come Emmanuel" is one of my favorite songs).

    Have a very Merry Christmas!
