Rain upon me, cleanse my discretions,
come make me feel brand new.
Lift me up dear Lord hear my confessions,
my prayer I offer You.
I called Your name many times before,
when my life fell apart.
Knocked but would not enter Your door,
did not give You my heart.
Then one day I fell on my knees to pray,
asked You to forgive.
I accepted You in my heart that day,
a new life I would live.
Now I see the sun and the warmth it holds
Your love shines down on me.
My life has meaning as blessings unfold,
happiness returned to me.
You dance on my heart and make it sing,
oh such beautiful sounds.
Thankful for the joy and contentment You bring,
as hope and love abounds.

This is a lovely dedication to God. It reads nicely. I never fully accepted Him until a few years ago. I can relate to the poem well.
The ABAB rhyme is nicely done.
Great job.

I really loved this entry. You speak of wanting and waiting and not stepping in. The emotion and heartache of going it alone, but how much strength you gathering when you let God carry those burdens for you. Love the cadence of the 'song'. Good luck!
