Each one of us signed, sealed and Yours

 Only You can change hearts, my Father,

You are in the heart changing business,

So I hand my family over to You,

For You created their hearts to begin with.

This sin soaked World has done such harm,

Hearts are suffering and darkened  by pain,

Redeemer, restorer, only You,

Have the power to revive them again.

Minds have been cruelly corrupted,

Actions and thoughts based on fear,

In panic striken survival mode,

No one can see their way clear.

I want my family to know You, Father,

And the deep inner joy that You bring,

With abundance, happiness and clarity,

Their best life can truly begin.

I want them to know about Jesus,

Who sacrificed His life for them,

Friend, comforter and reliever of burdens,

Only in Him, can they begin again.

Oh Father, I pour out my soul,

And give their lives over to You,

Heal my broken heart too Father,

From all that I have been through.

Holy Spirit I long for that day,

When I see my whole family restored,

Forgiveness and harmony reining,

Each one of us, sealed, signed and Yours.
