A Prayer

O frailty of my hardened heart
Oh love that softens and dispels
The pride and pain from poisoned dark
And stills my soul that yet rebels

Oh God of hope my heart compels
To find my solace, rest in you
My fears and doubt your love dispels
Replaced with trust and hope anew

My King please quench this thirst in me
Embrace the pain my soul can’t take
Remove the scales and set me free
That I might live for your name’s sake

Help me to stand before I break
Give me a vision, hope imbued
Rise up this child, my heart awake
With sight restored and soul renewed.



Dedicated to Kael for her listening keyboard

I am very impressed with--not trying to skip the fact that this is a prayer--your rhyming abilities.
