I need your help, Oh God, I pray. <br />Some things, I just do not understand. <br />I faithfully try to do as you tell me each day. <br />Your forgiveness makes me a righteous man. <br /> <br />Still, you often must find me where I fail. <br />You continually rescue me from harms way <br />Even when against your will I willfully rebel, <br />You mercifully bless me to see a new day. <br /> <br />Give me all of the strength I really need <br />To be the person that you need me to be. <br />As upon the Holy Scriptures, I daily feed, <br />Seeking for the greatness of your love for me. <br /> <br />Please, God help me to finally understand <br />I must frequently ask you to forgive my sin. <br />Your forgiveness makes me a righteous man. <br />A righteous man has God for a best friend. <br /> <br />Copyright 2007 <br />Reginald Levi Walker<br /><br />Reginald Walker<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-righteous-man-s-prayer/
