Open Book

In the evening when I start to pray,
I think about this day.
Another page is turned forever,
Another yesterday.

And, as the story of my life unfolds,
I know you’ve read it all.
Another line to be continued,
Will I stand or fall?

Open book, to you I am an open book
You know every page by heart,
From the ending to the start.
Open book, my life is like an open book
As you read between the lines,
Is your love that truly binds this open book

When the cover of this book is closed,
The final chapter read,
I hope you find it worth the reading,
I hope ‘well done’ is said.

Cover to cover Lord you know me
And what I want to be,
As you read the pages of my heart
Please tell me what you see.
