We can all relate- a Poem for you

Lord, I am tired of meeting You here again,

At the same stagnation point

Where I repent for my sins

And do the same sin again.

And when I try to pray to You,

I have no words.

My heart longs for You, Lord,

Yet only overwhelm fills my soul.

And I can't stand up,

Nor lift my head.

I don't know if I should lift my hands high

Or if I should kneel low at Your feet, Lord.

I don't know if I should praise You

Or weep my heart out in front of You.

When I look around, everyone looks so free,

And I feel chained up within myself, Lord.

Why can't I hide myself, Lord?

Why can't I run away?

Lord, my Father, if only Your Spirit would come

And fill me too,

Maybe I would be set free.

For sure, I would get a song to sing to You,

One of purity as Your daughter.

I would kneel before You, God,

Day and night,

Because You have changed me.

Until then,

Forevermore,

I will be hopeful.
