Oh, Lord I come to you each morning <br />to bless the brand new day. <br />I come to you to guide <br />my family and me <br />so that we won’t stray <br />from the path that you have chosen <br />for our future salvation. <br /> <br />So with my prayers I ask you, <br />walk with me each day. <br />From the morning sunrise <br />to the evening sunset. <br />Take me to your side <br />as the light begins to fail. <br /> <br />And during the darkness <br />when sleep invades my head, <br />my soul will you keep. <br />Help me to defend my soul <br />should someone try to steal it <br />and all the feelings <br />that are locked away within. <br /> <br /> <br />17 January 2007<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/locked-away-within/
