Forgiveness

I am lost

the world it swirl

my vision’s dark

in blackness curls

my hopes, my dreams

are fading fast

and I must ask

if it will last

this hell in which

I trapped myself

to place my honor

on the shelf

but now I’m stuck

not much to do

but sit and wait

and think of you.

So listen close,

I plead and beg

for this unworthy voice

has said

a million times

these broken words

these empty tears

these hearts unstirred

So please, oh please

just hear me here

“I’m sorry”

Please just give me ear

The words are said

the tears are spilt

the heart is moved

and all the guilt

is washed away

in brilliant light

to see the day

and not the night

has in my soul

to spring anew

the hopes and love

that ounce it new

I am free

and more in debt

of One who called men

from the net

to come and follow

in his way

I follow him

I will obey

The Master’s call

to all the world

“Come be healed”

His arms unfurled
