Lord, I Am Asking For A New Day

Poem By Angeline M Duran Santiago

My prayer to the Lord in the form of poetry. Sometimes I just take my guitar and write out a song to the Lord. It is usually either my prayer or my praise. When my heart is heavy, I pray, I wait on Him, and I write, for I know that God will provide the words we need if we trust in Him.

When I feel broken

Shattered inside

Lost in my thoughts

Choosing to hide

Will you please come and pull me out

Take me away from fear and doubt?

When I feel helpless

Lost, alone,

Silenced in darkness

That it my home

Will you please come and pull me out

Take me away from all this pain.

Lord, if you take me

Hold me strong

For in your arms

Nothing will go wrong.

Lord, if you pull me

Out of this place

You can erase all

My mistakes.

Lord, if you lift me

Up, out and away,

I'm sure it will be

A new day.

A new day

A new day to take a new step

A new day to feel the sun upon my face

A new day to open my heart, anew

A new day to trust with abandonment to You.

Lord, if you take me

Please don't let go

I am afraid

Don't know where to go.

Lord, if you choose me

Be a Light for my path,

Restore peace

Remove all this wrath.

Lord, if you take me

Lord, hold me tight

If my days are dark,

Worse are my nights.

Lord, if you hear me,

And choose to change me,

Give me a new day

A day where I'm free!

A new day

A new day to run and never get tired

A new day to leap out in faith without fear

A new day to wait and listen to you,

Where I won't regret the choices I've made

Where I'm confident you've made a way

Where I'm never doubting for you plan is so clear

All that I need

All that I want

Is 

A new day.
