Lord I Am Asking II
(Elizabeth Stephens)
This was a "personal prayer" of mine for years, in song.. that I'm sharing now with others.. so it can strengthen you as it did (and does) ME.
VERSE 1
Lord, I am asking
you to sustain me.
Be my strength,
My fortress for-ev-er
Begin to tell me all of your secrets,
I'll spend the time I need
in your presence, Lord.
CHORUS
For YOU are my rock,
My shield, My fortress.
Now and forever you are near me.
All that I can dream of is possible to you,
I never have to worry that you'll leave me Lord.
VERSE 2
So I'm asking:
Stengthen my heart
to see you for who you are...
all power ful and sufficient...
SO many times I fail to re al ize –
that YOU ARE GOD –
and not a man (repeat
Verse 2 “Yes, I’m asking”; then repeat
Chorus to Ending)
(Optional) REPEAT ENDINGs for WORSHIP
SO many times I fail to realize –
that YOU ARE GOD –
and not a man….that YOU ARE GOD – and not a man (fading out)
