Zechariah's Lament


[Verse 1]
Lord, all my life I have served You,
Obeyed all Your laws and commands,
An opportunity of a lifetime
You've given me and placed in my hands.

[Verse 2]
Yet I live in shame and in sadness.
A loving wife, but children I have none.
You've blessed me but still I feel abandoned.
I pray, Oh Lord, that I might have a son.

[Chorus]
Praise to you, Oh Lord, hear my prayer.
Praise to you, Oh Lord, answer my prayer.
And though it seems impossible,
Lord, You can make it happen for me.
