I am God I AM WHO I AM There are none like Me The strength of My might is immeasurable The breadth of My knowledge unknowable My children I protect My followers I love None whom I take into My hand I forsake Selah! Blessed are those, O Lord, who hear Your voice! Be not absent from my mind! But have patience and be of slow words For Your servant, Lord, can only write haltingly I give the dumb speech To the blind I give sight The deaf hear again with My touch My children pass like breaths But I am eternal Speak to the God who listens Oh merciful God, blessed be Your name! Holy are You that takes the time to listen to my speech My enemies are forfeit, my mockers destroyed The God of Abraham, of Isaac, of Jacob, of Moses, of Noah Graciously, mercifully listens to a babbler, a fool Humble my heart O Lord That my words might be pleasing to You Speak Listen to my prayer, O God And hide Yourself not from my supplication! Attend to me and answer me; I am restless and distraught in my complaint And must moan Lord to Your servant David You would answer Answer now my pleas, though my heart be crude and unfit Lord do You see Your child? He is tormented day and night by thoughts of You Your hands molded him into being His heart You placed in his chest and it was made to worship You But he is attacked and harassed Lord how he despairs so unjustly! Deep into the mire has he sunk He is trapped there in agony And the prince of lies is his companion Into his ears demons whisper day and night Lord, do not abandon him! You made him to love, to worship You! His heart You love, his mind You made What gifts You have blessed him with! Then how now does he suffer? Forsake me not, O Lord! O my God, be not far from me! Make haste to help me, O Lord! My salvation! This heart bleeds and weeps at his suffering In my insolence I thought it was I who could free him from his pain But no, it is You! Selah! God will you crush him too? Destroy his oppressors and free his soul He would worship and love You God, this I swear: These eyes have seen, these ears have heard All is in alignment, he is made to be your most devoted follower Let him worship You Lord, for this is right Forgive him his tresspasses, forgive him his sins Let him not weep in despair As he feels Your absence and is tortured still Are You not his savior? Are You not his redemption, his healer? God, Your lover, Your bride weeps to see Your abandonment She cries to see Your glory Her pleading will never cease Till Your mercy is shown And he is freed from his suffering And back into the tender care of Your loving arms Selah. She will plead until You are glorified And Your children love You as one Hold back not Your glory Love Your children Forget them not in Your wrath, o Lord May Your mercy come down like a cloud And Your love as a rain Amen and amen Glory to You forever and ever, o God

A Prayer to God: Remember Your Children
I am God I AM WHO I AM There are none like Me The strength of My might is immeasurable The breadth of My knowledge unknowable My children I protect My followers I love None whom I take into My hand I forsake Selah! Blessed are those, O Lord, who hear Your voice! Be not absent from my mind! But have patience and be of slow words For Your servant, Lord, can only write haltingly I give the dumb speech To the blind I give sight The deaf hear again with My touch My children pass like breaths But I am eternal Speak to the God who listens Oh merciful God, blessed be Your name! Holy are You that takes the time to listen to my speech My enemies are forfeit, my mockers destroyed The God of Abraham, of Isaac, of Jacob, of Moses, of Noah Graciously, mercifully listens to a babbler, a fool Humble my heart O Lord That my words might be pleasing to You Speak Listen to my prayer, O God And hide Yourself not from my supplication! Attend to me and answer me; I am restless and distraught in my complaint And must moan Lord to Your servant David You would answer Answer now my pleas, though my heart be crude and unfit Lord do You see Your child? He is tormented day and night by thoughts of You Your hands molded him into being His heart You placed in his chest and it was made to worship You But he is attacked and harassed Lord how he despairs so unjustly!
