Miracles of healing

 

Bring miracles of healing
From this cancer,

Not for myself, 
But those I’ve hurt, dear Lord; 

So when I say, “My fault”,
They will forgive me, 

And we’ll be reconciled, 
Our love restored.

May I serve you

 

Lord,

May I serve you
Every day
In all I think, and do,
And say;

And how I praise,

Through the Holy One  
Who died for us –
Your only Son.

To doubt your love;

You have a plan,    
So my heart is at rest.

To crave a miracle;

You have a purpose;
May your will be done. 

I have no motive, Lord,
To make complaint,

For you bring good from all things,
Through your Son.
