Array ( [sid] => 140590 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => And So I Pray [time] => 2008-02-24 23:56:47 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Come a little closer, God
I'm down on bended knee
Surround me with your light
And listen to my plea

I speak to You at quiet times
I beg of You when I'm low
At times I feel abandoned
And that's a painful blow

Let me ask a question, Lord
What is it I have done?
Why do I feel forsaken
As I suffer with my son?

Haven't I been righteous, God?
Haven't I been true?
This is all within Your plan
Yet I know not what to do

Of all that I will ask You, Lord
Please listen as I pray
Guide the doctors hearts and hands
Let him see another day [comments] => 2 [counter] => 309 [topic] => 75 [informant] => Tanna [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => anguished )
And So I Pray

Let me ask a question, Lord

Yet I know not what to do

Of all that I will ask You, Lord
