Honest Prayer – v3

Without flourish or fanfare

within our spirit

honest prayer to our Father

honest prayer to our God

what we should offer

when the load is heavy

too much to bear

what we are feeling

our hopes and our sorrows

in our despair, in our struggles

in our triumphs as well

all of them lifted up

all given unto God
