Deny me the things that spoil my soul

Deny me the things that spoil my soul
so that my spirit may be pure
There are so many that I dare not name them
for fear surrounds me

Open my eyes to the things I cannot see
So that your strength will guide my weakness
Though I'm not worthy of your love
I know you give it just the same

Your presence I feel inside and out,
So close but yet so far
Through trembling awe and humble heart
I must learn to listen though there is no sound

Deny me the things that spoil my soul
Release me from my pain
Immense force within my heart
That I cannot, will not ignore

Be this the only path for me to take for you
Then I must walk it gladly

    Wow, it had rhythm of its own, just seemed to read itself. Beautiful, remarkable, sounds as though it be a true psalm to God; whoever it speaks of I can see what it would mean for me.

    nice

    amasing expression... i think it has a lot to do with how you see the world blinding with its ignorance to material things and you strive not to get caught too. and a little about searching for the one who has the amazing ablility to streangth you through this. actually relly good.

    Thank you, your very kind. I'm not sure if it's finished or not. I've come to a stop without feeling like it's done so I guess I'll just have to keep coming back to it.
