I Leap

My sins carry a weight of such sorrow within my soul My father in heaven, I pray to you for forgiveness true. Your promised rapture left me here, under heavy toll. My soul has always been yours with such payment due. My life was not always dedicated completely to you, Lord. You provided me with spiritual faith, within my heart. You gave me so much, blessed me in peaceful accord. Giving me strength in many things, right from the start, I am below your exaltedness; I shall carry on until the end Deeply in my heart and soul, I gather my faith strong. To place your willingness of my fate, for you to tend, For I have failed you for sure, my Lord is never wrong. I know I have been a sinner, from when I was a beginner. My will is weak but deep, my Lord, for your love I leap.

Oh, Cecil, this is just how I feel. Unworthy, but faithful. I think you will have a joyful journey into the afterlife. Love, Carolyn
