Prayers for Her (Pt. 27)
A father who won’t give up praying for his daughter
By Rowan Finley Published 2 years ago • Updated 2 years ago • 1 min read
Oh, how Jesus cherishes you,
and has been proud of you as you grew.
May you now find rest,
as life feels rough, and like a constant test.
He doesn’t grade with a letter grade,
but salvation, His life, He laid,
down, for all,
so now you can just call,
Him in the day or night,
as everyone has the right.
He loves you more than I can,
for I am simply a man.
He loves you more than anyone could,
so if you would,
commit all of you, to all of Him,
and in life, you shall surely win.
Your life will always flourish,
because spirituality, He’ll forever nourish.
