Poetry

---

You know the things I need
to do what You want me to.
Needing the truth I read
to help me to be true to You.

I lay my life in Your hand
in this simple prayer.
So all my hope in You stands
‘gainst the god o’ the air.

Take away the fear and worry,
and I will live for You.
Make those demons run and scurry.
I will live for You.

Your word shapes my prayer,
to desire Your great will.
Seeking, yearning Your holy air.
Just in that be still.

A vision in me that I see,
when I am finally still:
I’ll see the Word before me
and I will be fulfilled.
