And now, Lord, I
who am but the least of
feel the need of
You, right now.
Hallowed out somewhat
stripped, frail
waxing tired often
yet...I still need Thee.
I know that you don't look upon the outer
but, my outer and my inner calleth for Thee
Lord, your door, I cannot open
but, my voice, by choice, I send in...
Whispering your mighty name
wanting an audience with You
Lord, if these words of mine you faintly hear
please acknowlege by removing my tears.
Would there another place to go
I'd not bother Thee
but, alas, there is only You
so, with You, I place my heart.
With tender love I ask of your grace
beauty for my ashes,
smiles for my face
strength to run your race.
I thank you in advance for all that You will grant to me
I praise you for the times of refreshing to come
knowing that your graciousness will see me through
then I'll thank you some more for that, too!
