evening prayer

Dear Lord

The day is nearing it’s end

The light is dimming

Street lamps come on

A little weary

I try to rest.

Through the days

The ups and downs

I wear a tired frown Lord I find it hard to smile.

There are days when I feel good

There are days when I feel inspired

I want to create a symphony

In praise of life,

Thankyou GOD.

LORD these days are troubled

There are wars that wont stop

I listen to the evening news

And the conflicts dragging on.

A disaster in nature

A cry from this troubled earth,

I will try to pray

I will try to pray

Oh lord we pray oh lord we pray.

Dear LORD we face the night

Sometimes it can be a troubled ride

Over stormy seas of sleeplesness

Sometimes troubled dreams leave us feeling disturbed,

Sometimes the night is calm

Please let the night be calm.

So as I seek rest

I will say

Dear GOD thank you for helping me through the day.
