Alone In My Room
Myriad thoughts
Go through my head
Of private sins
That should be dead
And dreams long spent
That recur and rent
My aching soul
My flesh is weak
I need a plan
To divert me from
My evil thoughts
Please let me see
Life’s goodness abound
odious demons
That tempt my heart
Can I be saved
from this cold world
With time to repent
Though my soul is rent
And be saved again
