The Psalm
The Prayer
You Are My Strength
I will never forget
my deepest sins
my anguish
my torment
my chaos
my own iniquity
And you were so far
I thought I knew you
and I could not see your face
All that appeared to me
was darkness
and dread
and death
and disease
and wickedness.
I did not knew you well enough
because your hand was always on my soul
your grace always surrounded me
your righteousness always clothed me
your peace was placed in my heart.
My response
to your goodness
was the worst.
But when I was faithless
you are were absolutely faithful
and just to forgive my sin
and cleansed me of my sin
over and over.
You will never tire
of rescuing me
I need your help
always I need you
be my God
and my Lord forever.
Amen.
