Evening Prayer

My evening prayer,

Is prayed in quiet.

Sometimes, I sing it.

Sometimes, I sigh it.

Lord, you are more than the world to me.

I pray my evening praise.

And sing with the joy of His love,

Of His tender, loving ways.

I can read a verse alone,

I can share it in the phone.

I can write it in my heart so deep.

A remembered promise He will keep.

I can make a note or two,

So I'll be reminded.

So I can see it in an instant, 

When fear would have me blinded.

My evening prayer,

Like a kiss good night.

When God is near,

It will always be alright.
