A Cry For Help

Father Yah help!

I am being attacked!

I can sense that my trial is beginning!
I know it is imminent now!

I am attacked by Your enemies!
They want to destroy me,
because I belong to You!

Test me, yes!
But don't let me fail!

Try me,
so that my weakness is exposed,
but please ensure that I don't fall!

Strengthen me!
I cannot succeed without You,
that is why I am running to You now!

I'm depending on You,
because it is You who I rely on!

Protect me from
their vicious attacks!
Don't let them hurt me more than I can bear!

Build a fence around me,
with only a small opening.
Then Your enemies won't charge me all at once
and at least I will have some relief!

Be merciful to me Father Yah, in my distress!
Be at the ready when I call!

Don't let them crush me beyond all hope,
because I belong to You and You call me Your own!

I know these things must happen.
They are meant to strengthen my trust in You!

Cause me Father Yah,
to trust in You now!

Declare my innocence,
because I depend on You.

Relieve me from this evil oppression,
because I am Your child!

But above all perfect me,
so that I will be perfect like You (My Father!)
