Can I ride on the high plains of the world, Father? Will you feed me on the heritage of Jacob as you promised? May I walk among the princes of your people? Will you cause men to give unto my bosom in overflowing measure?

Will you cause my enemies to flee in seven directions?  Will you provide a host of angels to keep charge over me?  Will you make my crooked paths straight? Will you allow me to do greater works for you?

Father of lights, will you give me every good and perfect gift?  Will you sing over me with joy?  Will you give me the wealth of the wicked?  Will you give me your wisdom? Will you be my strong tower and hide me beneath the shadow of your wings?

Will you give me the wisdom to get wealth? Will you give me dreams and visions? Will you cause me to run and not grow weary? Will you give me my daily bread and count the number of hairs on my head?

Will you spread your cloak over me and take me to yourself as a husband? Will you place jewels on my belly and bracelets on my wrists? Will you find me in the dirt and wash the blood from me? Will you store my tears in a bottle and bring up my prayers as incense before you?

Will you absolve my sins, and remember them no more?  Will you heal my transgressions? Will you throw my sin into the sea of forgetfulness? Will you let me sit in your throne, and judge the sins of the nations? Will you let me throw my crown at your feet?

Will you let me sing Holy, Holy, Holy is the LORD who was and is and is to come? Will you receive me at your banqueting table and place your banner of love over me? Will you let me enter your kingdom with thanksgiving and your courts with praise?  Will you inhabit my praises to you?

Will you give me beauty for ashes and bring joy to me in the morning?  When I am weak, will you be made strong? Will you comfort me in my affliction? If I keep my eyes on you will you keep me in perfect peace? Will you give me a peaceable habitation and a sure dwelling?

Will you write your name upon me and seal me to yourself in Christ? Will you allow me to gaze upon the hills and know from whence cometh my help? Will you whisper in my ear so distinctly that I will know when to stop and when to turn left?

Will you place a rainbow in the sky as a sign that you remember your promises to me for all the days of my life upon the earth?  Will you remember the plans you have for me? Will you plan to give me life? Will you plan to do good to me and not evil? Will you keep evil far from my dwelling place? Will you allow a host of angels to encamp around me?

Will you give me the authority to command blessing and reverse the curses of the enemy? Will you allow me to crush the serpent under my feet? Will you prepare a place just for me to dwell, within your many mansions? Will you be aware of all that I have need of and adorn my life more beautifully than you adorn the flowers of the field?

Will you show me the ancient paths? Will you lead me into all truth? Will you redeem me from the earth and let me dwell with you forever? Will you allow me to be forgiven as I forgive others? Will you allow me to come in and out of your gates freely? Will you buy me with a great price?

My Father said, “I will.”
