Heavenly father I am grateful

For your eternal presence

I am learning to be patient

And that you are really there

Sometimes I am afraid

And I know that's lacking faith

I'm beginning to understand

That for me you have a plan

Heavenly father I am grateful

For you sending your son

To die so that I live

And for never giving up

I'm learning everyday

That I won't always have my way

But I'm beginning to understand

That for me you have a plan

Heavenly father I am grateful

For you hearing my prayer

I am learning to be patient

And that you are really there

There are answers I'm receiving

No they're not always immediate

Sometimes I have felt a feeling

That's when I kneel down in prayer

You show me you hear my prayer

I'm amazed by how you care

Cause you hear

My little prayer
