The Psalm
The Prayer
You Are My Rest
Most of my life
I have fought against you
blasphemed your holy name
was slave to my own lusts
continue to hating everybody
and including myself.
But with all of my life
you set your affections upon me
loved me with love I have never known
gave me grace everywhere
and was so merciful and kind towards me
despite my anger and rage and sin against you
I still cannot believe
that you would love me
at my very worst
in my darkest pain
in my deepest shame
you saw me
knowing I was dead
and brought me to life.
I need you, Lord
now more than anything.
Be my love forever.
I love you.
Amen.
