Father, Have Your Arms Grown Weak?
 


 
Sweet Heavenly Father,
I fall on my knees
crying out to you once more,
pouring the very being of my soul
out amongst the winds that
they may carry my prayers even
faster to Your ears.

My baby girl, you know the one,
I placed her in your care at 15...
she's 24 now and her pain is so
much greater, more sophisticated,
more devastating to herself,
and I.

I'm doing as you would want,
my Heavenly Father...
I am raising her two young sons
as my own, loving them
best as I can,
guiding them forward to You
despite the doubt that
tears at my heart once more.

You KNOW, as no other can,
how I cry out to you for Amber...
as she still can't call to you
on her own.
She's been beaten,
she's been broken,
she's without hearth or home,
without hope or dreams,
without me to hold her....
and I'm dying inside out for the
life she throws away!

Dear Sweet Jesus,
I knew way back when
I wasn't strong enough to
save my little girl,
and my entire being laid her in your arms
I swore to stay back and let you
work within her heart and life,
to create what only you can create....
without my interference.

Heavenly Father,
owner of my soul,
have your arms grown weak?
Does my baby not deserve to
be held in her darkest of hours?
Does she not deserve your mercy
as she struggles to find THE WAY?
You know how my heart cries
run to her...
You know how my head
screams GO to her...
but I handed her over to YOU, Father...

and she's falling tonight....
and she's crying tonight....
and she's alone tonight....
and she's cutting herself tonight....

When that phone rings, Father,
will you have dropped her?
or will I hear you've taken her home?
and her pain will be gone....
even though she has never called out your name?

or will her sons and I,
bleed once again
for everything she promises,
for all the pretty words,
for all the new scars to come....
because you wait for HER to call YOU....

that wasn't part of the bargain when
I placed her in your care.....
when she was just 15....
now 24.....
and now more lost than ever.

Dear Heavenly Father,
I offer up my soul to YOU,
now,
this day,
this minute....
if you'll just save my baby!

PLEASE FATHER,
Hear my prayer!
