Fill Me With Your Compassion

Lord, I'd like to ask something of You,
Please fill me with Your compassion.
I want to love others as You do,
Not the, "love a little bit fashion."

I want to feel their hurts, and pain.
I'd like to be able to relate to them.
When their troubles fall like rain,
Let their eyes not be so dim.

I want them to see Jesus in me,
To show them of Your great love.
I want them to be set free,
By calling on You up above.

I want to always be there for others,
And to have a word of encouragement.
I want to love my sisters & brothers,
And not to have any arguments.

Help me Lord to control my anger,
When someone intensely hurts me .
Help me to remember the danger,
Through Your eyes, let me see.

Let them not see in me bitterness,
But let them see compassion & love.
I want to show them only kindness,
These people, I do not want to shove.

Give me compassion... Your kind.
Let me love everyone as You do.
This kind of love, I want to find.
I can only find it Lord, in You.
