Dear Lord Please Hear My Prayer

• Dear Lord
• please hear my prayer
• hold me tight
• I know you are there

• my heart is breaking
• lover is gone
• he has been taken
• and I am alone

• Lord if you love me
• please hold my hand
• I have such sorrow
• and I don't understand

• why I shared my life
• all of those years
• to die in this room
• alone with my tears

• I've been forgotten
• no one comes by
• I stare out my window
• I pray and I cry

• Lord if you love me
• please hold my hand
• I have such sorrow
• and I don't understand

• I hear him call
• sweetly out my name
• I know he is gone
• I hear him just the same

• a lifetime of memories
• hang from the walls
• the sound of his laughter
• echoes down the halls

• Lord if you love me
• please hold my hand
• I have such sorrow
• and I don't understand

• how long oh Lord
• before you take me home
• to spare my heart the pain
• of being all alone

• flowers have a season
• then wither and die
• still I must lay here
• and I don't know why

• Lord if you love me
• please hold my hand
• I have such sorrow
• and I don't understand
