Shorten My Days

from Richard Shekari Hosted by Richard Shekari

Shorten My Days Verse 1: Sometimes I wonder if my love for You, Lord, is real, Though my knees hurt from praying day and night, Mostly from greed, and all I desired from this world. I'm starting to question my intentions toward You. Verse 2: Sometimes I wonder if my love for You, Lord, is real, Though my eyes hurt from the tears I've cried day and night, Mostly from the way this world has treated me, or so I thought. I'm starting to question my intentions toward You. Chorus: Shorten my days, dear Lord, If the rest of my days will not bring glory to Your holy name. Let this life not glow in the dark, If the rest of my days will not bring glory to Your Kingdom. Verse 3: Battles I've fought since birth, Battles I've won, 'cause You stood by me, dear Lord. My life sought out in the dark by these fallen stars, But Your grace continues to sustain my soul. *Chorus* Bridge: Yes, the earth You laid is beautiful, But the world is not. Stuck in an ocean filled with sharks, With no stars to guide me through the night. Teach me how to shine my light in the darkest night, Teach me how to stand strong and bold in the wildest place. *Chorus* Guitar: Nameless. Written, Produced and Performed by Richard Shekari
