Are you clinging to life?
Afraid to let go of the past.
Fearful to live in the present,
concerned about the uncertainty of the future.
Don't hold life in a desperate grip,
stop trying to control,
stop needing and looking for security.
Help me Lord
to ask for your forgiveness
that I can learn from the past and leave it behind;
acknowledge your acceptance
that I can live more fully in the present,
to receive God's guidance
so that I can be excited about my future.
Help me Lord to let go,
to give you the control and the praise,
and to know that with you I am secure.
