Dear God, please take away every memory that I ever had of him
Please give me a strong branch to hold on to
instead of this flimsy limb.
Please give me the strength
to make a clean slate
Please give me the courage
to accept the inevitable fate.
Dear God, please take all of my tears away
Please give me peace of mind
Please help me to see a brighter day
And please take away the rock
where I want to run and hide.
Please give me a stronger heart,
so that for a while I can borrow
Please help me to believe
that there will be an ending to this all consuming sorrow
Because I know that if I trust in You...
There will be a brighter tomorrow.
