A psalm in the midst of wanting and not having children

lyrics

O, Lord, please give me a child.
May I find favor in Your sight.
I want to be; I want to be a father.
I want to train soldiers for the battle.

Why, Lord? Why withhold Your grace?
I know I have hid from Your face,
but You called me;
You called me anyway.

O, Lord, why open my eyes
and keep me broken?
You called me; You called me to the battle.
Is this it? Is this the battle?
’Cause I don’t want this;
I don’t want this battle.

O, Lord, give me rings like a tree
with many years and a progeny.
Give me sons. Give me daughters.
Let them drink;
drink from Your waters.

O, Lord, please give me a child.
Or put me, put me on the front line.
