Deep within me lies a darkness
only you can see.
Trials and tribulations you provide
that I might with you clean.
Pull out said darkness, increase my love
Grow. In stature and might.
Drag my feet, I'm guilty, although slowly
I see, your light.
My potential I know not. What I know
I sometimes forget.
You nurture, purify that I might know
partake of your redemption. Repent!
Patient? Not always during this process
Patient. Always. With me you "forget"
my sin, my failures, my darker side.
Rift with imperfections, your charity, grace sublime
train my perspective to see the eternal side.
"Thank you" is insufficient. my tithes fall short
the only think I can truly give, my will,
which my spirit supports.
The only think that's truly mine,
I work daily to give to you.
As its the only gift that I can with it say,
"I love you."
I'm sorry for my darkness, my imperfections,
the human side of me.
But help me as always, that through you
I might be...
Like You.
