Lord God,
I am begging you
It’s me, [name]
I’m begging you
I’m begging you to take my hand
Lift me up, out of darkness
Into the light
Lift me out of my addiction.
Lord God,
Take my hand
It’s me, [name]
Begging you to take my hand
Just for today
Lift me up into the light of your love
So that I may see
The reflection of my face in yours.
Restore me to sanity.
Fill me with your grace.
Amen.
